Hi there! I am musician from Russia. I was born in Syberia, near great Baykal lake (where my family lives), but now I live in St.Petersburg.

So, I like to play my trumpet (I have high-grade musical education), especially jazz - just for fun, in the little jazz bars here in St.Petersburg, or electronic music - with live trumpet it can sound really unusual.

My way of working now is connected to modern musical technologies and media art, also, I am a teacher of "modern musical harmony" course for electronic musicians - beginners.

But music in not only one thing in the world, so sometimes I really happy about forget that I am a musician and cardinnaly change the way of my activity. For example, I worked as a chief (it was one of my dreams before I completely did it).

And, of course, I am very excited about communicating with the people from over the world - It is the best part of any journey for me!

One of my hobbies is hang gliding. I am still learning to fly - but it is one of my dreams - to became a pilot. No ground, only free sky!!!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Interacting with people from all over the world is most impressive thing for me - so many different minds and cultures, so big open-minded planet :)

Interessen

My interests are very close to any kind of art manifestation - it can be anything from the way of what people wear and how they speak to real artworks)
The life is some kind of dance for me. Just make your movements gracefully :)

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I like all kind of music, from classical and native to jazz, pop, soul and electronic music. One thing - it must be pure and honest, it must be real!
Last crazy movies that impressed me so much is Victoria by Sebastian Schipper and Le Pont Des Arts by Eugene Green. Actually, I start to watch good movies not so long time ago)
Books? Ok, I like Pushkin, Dostoevsky, Pelevin, Cuprin, Nabokov, Gete, Fowles, Gesse, Cortasar and many others!

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

3 Years ago I came to St.Petersburg only with one backpack, i'm even didn't have my passport at that moment - and now I live and work here as the native citizen!

I'm a hitchhiker - I cross Russia from East to West 3 times - from my native town Irkutsk to Moscow, Petersburg and Sochi!

I have an experience of parachute and base jumping, also I am learning to fly hang-glider.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

If you want to teach me something - It's good, if I can - it's even better)
Our experience is all we can keep forever!

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

It's my job - to teach people how to play and write music, so I always glad to help with it! Also, I can help you to practice your Russian, or share my experience about travelling across Russia.
