Live in Saint-Petersburg, Russia. Work as a journalist, live as a writer. Write, create, perform. Interested in human beings and matters of their (our) life, in society. Design as part of it. Ecology as its main problem. Psycology as the way to cure its diseases. Philosophy as the way to understand it. Languages as the way to communicate.

I am a professional mountaneer and have climbed the highest peak of Europe. Last winter crossed the deepest lake on Earth by feet.
I am also supeficialy interested in astrophysics and abstract art.

Currently working on a book of essays devoted to the self-perception of a young person as a grown-up in contemporary society.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel a lot, value meeting new people and exchange the cultural heritage we are all a part of. Love communication and respect privacy.

Love to look at the city from non-touristic point, so last years I prefer trying to live "ordinary" life during the stay. I enjoy the magic of meeting absolutely new people. I am sure that staying at local people partly erases the artificial borders created by the politics, economics and official ideologies.

NB: I am not interested in sexual relationship while travelling.
