About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet inspiring people, see amazing places, enjoy every minute of my life

ABOUT ME

I'm open-minded, curious and easy going person. I'm always searching for new adventures and experiences, that's why I love traveling around the world. I enjoy meeting people from all over the world and learning new things - foreign languages, various cultures, strange food, remote countries. I like challenges, after all overcoming challenges is one of the most rewarding and memorable experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

Too many places to see, too many things to do, too many people to meet, too little time. Never stop exploring and discovering

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Share a smile and hope that the world smiles with me. Can't wait to get a couch so I can host and show the world my hospitality

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couch surfing is an amazing concept, it creates the world without borders, brings different cultures together and breaks stereotypes. It is so great to meet friendly and welcoming people when I'm in a foreign country and to make visitors coming to my country feel like at home.

Interests

I love traveling and exploring new cultures, their way of life, food, languages. My favorite pastime is photography and reading books. I like animals and nature and always try to get involved in wildlife conservation projects whenever I can. I enjoy cycling and swimming. I love to listen to stories of other travelers' adventures and I really appreciate local advice and insider stories of places I'm visiting

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So many amazing things to do and see in this beautiful world - I've spent two and a half months in the Amazon jungle searching for new species of animals, one month looking after rescued puma triplets in the animal sanctuary in Bolivian jungle, made my way across the African continent on my own, going to many remote areas using any means of local transport, including hitchhiking, fish trucks, motorcycles and donkeys.

Teach, Learn, Share

Would love to improve my Spanish and KiSwahili, learn French and Arabic, how to juggle and how to read maps and how to find my way in unknown places. Can teach swimming, English and Russian. I would like to share my knowledge of the places I've been to and listen to the stories of the places I would like to visit
