I've got much help during my travels and want to give it back.
I'm calm, like to enjoy simple things, nature and animals, extreme sports, to read, long walks, hitchhiking, coffee.
Speak Spanish a bit & have super basic French. It would be nice if you help me to improve it. I'm happy to give you a hand with Russian.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

- to feel new places through spending time with locals and to see my city through travelers eyes;
- to learn history and culture of different countries;
- to find good fellows around the world;
- to safe some money for accommodation when i travel.
