I graduated from Sociology department of Altay State University (Barnaul) and after that made PHD in sociology in Sociological Institute of Russian Academy of Science (St. Petersburg). Along with Sociology occupations I've always had a second job in IT and ended up as technical support engineer at Veeam Software.
I consider myself as active, but calm, a bit crazy, but rational and thinking person.
I like to eat delicious food and sometimes I can cook one (mostly, mix of russian and indian style).

I like yoga, buddhism (I have visited Dalai Lama teachings once), philosophy and psychology. Apart from that I like reading, watching movies, hiking and of course travelling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was introduced to CS by my good fried and loved it. This is a great community of travellers and I love to participate in it.
