Hey, I'm back to Bali after three years, and I'm happy to start hosting good people again 😌

I develop games, play musical instruments, do photography, learn languages (French atm). I prefer extreme kinds of sport, I like surfing, paragliding, skiing. I'm friendly and open-minded, I never skip a chance to meet new people or see my old friends, I'm a curious listener and I easily find the common language with anyone.
I'd like to travel and try living in different countries around the world to find the best place to live in.
I don't like big parties much, but sometimes I go there just to feel and see something different from what I usually do :)

I post my film photos on my Instagram: denisbondare

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet more people, learn something new about other cultures and living in other countries. I love getting to know people, but I'm not an extra socialized person myself, I rarely go out and I work remotely from home. So Couchsurfing is a perfect solution for me. Also, after all those people I met in CS, I can tell that it's much more likely to meet an outstanding, interesting, and active person here rather than on a party :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I can enjoy listening to every kind of music, it really depends on my mood and context. But somehow I never listen to metal 🤔 I'm trying to listen to more new music and not to fall into listening to the same songs which I loved for years 😃
Mostly I read non-fiction books, I hope one day I'll discover a passion for reading fiction books, I know it can be enthralling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent New Year's Eve alone in the middle of the jungle with mosquitoes and leeches in a few kilometers from an active volcano erupted a day before. I wouldn't say it's an amazing thing but it was interesting 😂
I moved to Bali from my hometown in Siberia and started hosting people from all over the world :)
Also, it may be the worst "amazing thing" you've ever heard but I know the first 100 digits in pi. And no, I'm not such a nerd.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm playing piano and guitar and that's what I can both teach and learn. I'd love to know anything about different cultures. My current job is making games so if you're into it, we can discuss it and share some experience.
My native language is Russian, I speak English and learning French at the moment. So I'm always happy to practice and help to learn any of those.
I was learning tango and lindy hop for a while but it's been quite a while, so if you dance we can give it a try.
Also, I lived in Bali for more than a year and traveled it all around. So if you were ever interested in moving there or just travel ask me and I'll gladly give you some useful information.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Beside everything from "teach, learn, share" block it'd be a pleasure for me to help my hosts if they need anything else. I'd be happy to spend some time together, get to know each other, meet host's friends, but it's also fine with me if you don't want any distractions, I'll be quiet, respectful, and self-sufficient. People are different and it's absolutely ok :)
