ABOUT ME

I used to be a serious lawyer, working hard 18 hours per day, but I got tired, left everything and started travelling. Crowed cities, cosy villages, expensive hotels and simple hostels, after 10 years on the way to meet new cultures I understood that the best way to know how the people of any country live is to spend the time with them but not in the hotel going out for travel agency´s tours.

I started my couchsurfing activity living in Kiev, Ukraine, but two years ago I moved to Mexico, Queretaro (2 hours far from Mexico City). If you like dogs (I have Cocker spaniel and Labrador retriever, both very friendly and inoffensive) I can provide you with a place to stay in Queretaro, but at least any help you need for exploring city's life.

I am a responsible, well educated human being, a fun friend and an easy-going person at the same time, one who loves meeting new people, enjoys exploring new cultures and countries. I was travelling all my free time but still ready for new adventures. Besides my native ukrainian and russian, I speak english and spanish too.

PHILOSOPHY

You are what you do and not what you tell you will.

Sólo nos conocemos cuando conocemos nuestros propios límites.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted people from CS in my apartment in Kiev (Ukraine) since 2010 without being registered in the site, because some close friends of mine were members of this community. With CS I was travelling around Europe in 2012-2013 and I can say that it's a great project indeed)
