Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Arranging conditions for people to develop themselves, encouraging people to love and to take care of each other.
ABOUT ME
As a student I used to study foreign languages, culture, history, regional differences of peoples and nations.
Now when I travel, I get to know people and their cultures. I don't like to travel as ordinary tourists. For me is essential to take part in local activities and dip into the atmosphere.
I arrange groups of people with whom I travel around the world. I also specialized in arranging snorkeling tours in the Maldives, hiking tours around Russia and abroad, trainings in Europe. Can give a lot of tips about traveling!
PHILOSOPHY
Encourage people to do the good. People are better than they think of themselves.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
At the moment I’d be happy to hang out in the city, to show around and to have a great conversation!🔥
I allways enjoed communicating with people of different cultures, communities, interests, lifestyles.
If I travel abroad, I'm allways eager to get acquainted with local culture. I like big cities as well as villages and nature, I’m curious about everything .
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I havent heard of such a thing as couch-serfing in Russia. Here people just can invite each other if they see they should help. Once being at a festival I suggested sharing my tent with guys, who had no place to sleep. Thus I found new friends, with whom I have common interests.
Now I've tried couch surfing in Europe and Asia - and I can say, I was the luckiest tourist! I got in touch with local youth and local culture!

Music, Movies, and Books
I don't like watching movies, but some of them a worth watching. When I was younger I watched Star Wars more than 30 times. I also read about 60 Star Wars books.
Now I admire Dostoyevskiy, Tolstoy, Chekhov and other Russian classical wrighters. Among the world wrighters I would highlight Goethe, O. Wilde, G. Flober, T. Mann.. I've read many, and I want to read as much as possible) Music - reggea, punk, ska, russian-rock, pop....
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I’m spontaneous.
I climbed a bridge over the Moscow-river - that was exciting! trains of the metro passed underneath and cars drove above.
I travelled Sri Lanka alone. I swam with whale sharks.
I climbed the European highest mountain - Elbrus, 5642m
