Hi there! My name is Dima, I work as strategic buyer in consumer staples company. Originally I came from very beautiful Russian city called Kaliningrad. Most recently I relocated to Ghent, Belgium and before that I spent fantastic 6 years in Germany :). I consider myself world citizen and enjoy living and working abroad.
Speaking about my personal traits, I'm an extrovert person who enjoy meet new people, chat, hang out and can't basically live without social interactions :).. Nevertheless, there is a limit and I like to have calm days and spend time in chill atmosphere :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is great tool to meet and host travelers from around the world
As traveler, Couchsurfing is also a great opportunity to meet locals and get to know more about what it feels like to live in a specific country than only experiencing the touristic view of foreign countries.
