Born in Perm on the beaitful Urals in Russia I came through a couple of big and old, small and young cities and ended up in Vancouver, Beautiful British Columbia, Canada.

I'm a co-founder of a startup - https://introwise.com. We help people connect with each other before, during and after big events.

I spend a significant part of my free time running, usually training to break a 3 hour marathon time. So my favourite way to get to know a new city is to take a long run around it.

I am really into specialty coffee, so my favorite spot to go out is usually some hip coffee shop in a weird part of the town. Or pretty much any cool place that has some vegetarian options.

Although being on the quiet side I like to engage in a good interesting conversation. There is always something to learn and something to share.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
