About Me

Я люблю находится в дороге. Наверное, эта любовь у меня завелась ещё с детства. Я обожал читать истории про графа Монте-Кристо, Овода, Одиссея, Казанову (он был путешественником в первую очередь)), Руаля Амундсена. На моей памяти самые лучшие поездки у меня случались тогда, когда я знакомился с новыми людьми. Я не сильно тащусь от архитектуры, картин, фонтанов и писающих в них мальчиков. Истории, которые я вспоминаю, связаны с нелепыми ситуациями и людьми, принимающими в них участие. Я не запомнил замок Сан-Суси, но прекрасно помню, как мы купались голыми в центре Потсдама или как из окна хостела в нас кидали трусами девочки из католической школы; плохо помню музей искусств в Валенсии, но отчетливо помню черты лица араба, который два раза обещал нас вписать у своих друзей в городе и два раза мы ночевали на пляже; помню концерты на крыше дома в 2 часа ночи в городе Кастельон - просто так совпало, что, что к нам в гости приехала пара из Германии, которые играли на гитаре и скрипке. Или как в Лиссабоне познакомился с футбольными фанатами, которые подарили мне шарф Бенфики и обещали в будущем топить за Локомотив. Вот, так я провожу свое время в поездках.

Еще я люблю фотографировать. Поэтому с радостью предложу вам фотосессию в интересных местах вашего города.

I like to keep traveling on the road. This love came from my childhood, when I read stories about Montecristo, Rual Amundsen, Odyssey, Casanova (yep, he was traveller) and others. All my best trips are connected with new people. I'm not into architecture, museums, etc although I like to visit them as well. But people are the key reason I like to travel. I remember cities not by the buildings, but by stories I had there. Like swimming naked in Potsdam with my new friends, or playing guitar and violine on the roof in Castellón, or having party with football fans in Lisbon, who gave me national team's scarf.

I'm also into photography and will be glad to make you beautifull photos in interesting places of your city.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm in for traveling because you never know what kind of interesting people you can meet.
I surely like adventures and hope that by 40 I'll collect enough funny and interesting stories to write a book. Here some of them:

Once in Castellon (Valencia) I got aquianted with pair from Germany who played in rock band. She played violin and he played guitar. So we organized a little concert on the roof of my apartment with all my friends and wine with bocadillos.

Once in Valencia I had to take off my trouses and give it to my friend 'cause he wanted to go to the club very much, but they didn't let him in with shorts.

I like that I have certain memories of the places. It makes our life colorful (not buildings, museums or food) as for me.

Interests

I like classic literature, history and phylosophy
and memes.

I like movies and literature most. I'm ready to speak about them for hours.

I'm also into photography and will be glad to make you beautifull photos in interesting places of your city.
