Hi there, I'm Edgar! I am an easy going guy who is open minded and enjoys life to the fullest. I enjoy learning about new cultures, languages and good local food (Who doesn't love tasty food?) I was born in Kyrgystan in a town which is surrounded by beautiful mountans. In the year 2000 along with my parents I moved to Russian and since then I've been living in a small, cosy town named Syzran, Samara province. By the way, Samara is one of the host cities for FIFA 2018. What I do for a living is, well, I'm a firefighter and at the same time a rescue officer I really enjoy helping people when they're in need or (God forbid) in an emergency situation. When I'm off duty I like spending time out of town, go camping and on some occasion grab a rod and go fishing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people, share curtural stuff, explore something new for myself, also share my knowledge and experince with others.

Music, Movies, and Books

Well, I like all kind of music as long as it's not hurting my ears. Movies, what I like the most are sci-fi, comedy and horror genres.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I challenged myself to learn Arabic.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some russian or at least some of its strongest expressions if you'd like me to. I can also explain what Matryoshka is, and how to assemble and disassemble it. I can show how to make friends with a bear that is probably the best balalaika player in the neighborhood with only one bottle of vodka and wearing shapka-ushanka.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would be happy to sit and have an open conversation about life, and the world as you and I see it, each through the lens of our own experiences. Or to have some fun joint activities.
