Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I like to meet new people, I like to stay with locals and like to help other travelers to explore our world. I am here to meet new people and want to know them as much as possible.
Music, Movies, and Books
I like almost all kinds of music. I can listen to everything except any russian music. Saw and rated more than 4000 movies. You can tell me what you like and I can advise something special for you. Or just can send to you my list of movies with high rates ;) I like reading, my taste always changing and the books that I liked a few years ago now look not interesting for me. For example, in the age of 15-18, I liked “1984” by Orwell and other different anti-utopia stuff From 18-21 I loved Carlos Castaneda's books. For now the last one that I liked was “Shantaram” by Roberts Gregori David. Many streams of incomes” Robert Alen the book that should be instead of the bible in the capitalist period of the human story. I will happy if you share some of your favorite books, music and movies.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Definitely Vipassana. Other? Hitchhiking changed my life. Hitchhiked more than 200000 km in 2017 after that stopped to count km. Drove manual car for first time without any experience on highway in the mountains. Lived with 200 euro for almost 2 years. Opened the hostel without any experience of living in a hostel. Made the first real opposition political party in my city. Watched sunset on the cliff in the Atlantic Ocean. Tracked to Everest base camp with broken finger on feet. Tried mushrooms, DMT, Iboga and 30+more drugs. Well, a lot of interesting and fun stories some of them I cannot put here ;) but you can ask, maybe I will in mud to share it.
