About Me

Do ever mean those guys that are way too humorous, but at the same time can be really serious and focused? Well I'm one of them. I just can't imagine my life without humour, always trying to make people happy by making them laugh. I constantly work on improving myself in various spheres, especially human relations and that just straight up boosted my genuine interest towards people around me and overall concern for their wellbeing.

A little bit about myself. I work as an intrepreter and tour guide starting to organize my own tours. My work requires me to travel around Russia and sometimes around the world (I've spent almost 3 months on Madagascar translating for one company). I speak English and French, a bit of Spanish, I also read Latin and of course Russian. I love many types of music, however I can't play it.

I'm an easy-going guy, have a good cheerful sense of humour that gets me through the bumps of life. I love life and have this more or less stoic/antifragile mindset (at least I try to), always looking for the best and trying to get something even from the worst. I'm more of an extrovert, so I enjoy spending time with people, socializing, getting to know their stories and see their view of the world and learn something from them of course. Even though I'm lively I can easily switch into more of a reflective and life-observing mood, when I alone to meditate and just take it all in, really experience my own existence in this weird world. So yeah I enjoy a company do not mind at all being alone.

I'm interested in music, cinema, practical psychology and philosophy and of course languages. I like working out: gym , cycling, street work-out and just sport in general including snowboarding and ice-skating in winter.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people abroad, get to know their culture , to hang out with locals , to learn and to teach ! :)
I just find that there is no better way to fully discover a new culture, new country, new people.

Interests

I would easily say that it's highly unlikely that you will find a subject that won't interest me, I' a great conversationalist. So we can talk pretty much about anything, it's always nice to learn something new. I'm kinda more interested in people themselves and how they relate to these subjects .

  • literature
  • motorcycles
  • movies
