About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live my life, try to live by full life in every moment ;)

Жить своей жизнью, стараясь максимально ее наполнить и максимально выложиться

ABOUT ME

I love to travel, meet new people. I like very much to get out of town for cycling and hiking. Also i adore to do photoshots of nature, animals and people. Music and cinema is always with me through life. Hanging around with friends and crashing some parties is also an important part of my life. :) Also to ride somewhere by my moped is my real passion. I like to create and think up something: poetry lines, stories, videoclips... Do it all time that I live

Очень люблю путешествовать, открывать новые места, встречать новых людей. Обожаю кататься на своем мопеде. Фотографирование людей, животных, событий тоже одно из моих главных увлечений. Музыка и кино всегда со мной по жизни, особенно музыка. Она создаёт настроение. Люблю, как побыть в одиночестве и что-то придумать, сочинить: поэтические строчки, историю, видеорассказ, так и встречаться со знакомыми и проводить вместе время

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I look for hosts for my journeys and when I at my home I also can offer a couch

Встречать новых людей, узнавать что-то свежее, получать новые опыт и эмоции. Раньше очень много путешествовал сам и был гостем, а сейчас могу принимать путешественников в довольно популярном городе в своем собственном маленьком жилье

some advices for people who going to Russia

1. for city transport you can download application 2GIS (it works offline and has english interface. also for 2GIS you can download bases for almost all big russian cities - www.2gis.ru)
2. if you want to order taxi better to use mobile applications. some of them: Yandex.Taxi, Maxim, Vezet. Also these services possible to use just through browser. For example: www.taxi.yandex.ru. I think the cheapest of these services is Vezet.
3. if you need to buy russian sim-card, you should to know that tariffs for moscow sim-cards usually more expensive than for sim-cards of other regions
4. for connection to public wi-fi in russia you should to indeficate yourself. for this aim better to have local sim-card
5. for buying of russian sim-card you obligate to show your passport. For price approximately in 350 rub you can get unlimited internet by territory of all Russia

6. for railroad tickets go to this site: www.rzd.ru (english version - https://pass.rzd.ru/main-pass/public/en) or you can use mobile application from RZD. usually possible to buy railroad tickets 90 days in advance
7. in russia the most popular ridesharing service is blablacar (site - www.blablacar.ru)
8. to travel by russia by buses for the long distances is not the best idea because planes and trains usually are cheaper and much more comfortably but if you will need you should to check this site for schedule: https://bus.yandex.ru,
9. it depends of region but usually you can buy alcohol in duration of this time: 10.00-22.00 (but for example in yakutia national republic only from 14.00 to 20.00)
