Hi! I’m an accountant transitioning into a career as a fitness coach. I’m traveling to Miami to explore the city, learn more about sports culture, and meet inspiring people along the way.

I currently live in Marseille, a beautiful city in the south of France. I’m also a beach volleyball coach for beginners. Before this, I played professional indoor volleyball, which taught me discipline and teamwork.

I don’t drink alcohol as I love maintaining a healthy and active lifestyle. I’m passionate about fitness, wellness, and connecting with people from different cultures. I believe in the power of shared experiences and meaningful conversations.

Although I’m new to Couchsurfing (I created my profile in 2022 but haven’t used it yet), I’m familiar with hosting. For the past year, I’ve been renting a room in my apartment in Marseille through Airbnb. Hosting has been an amazing experience, and you can check out the reviews on my Airbnb profile.

I’m excited to start my Couchsurfing journey and look forward to meeting you! 😊

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m on Couchsurfing because I believe the best way to truly experience a new city is by connecting with the people who live there. Traveling is not just about seeing places; it’s about understanding the culture, lifestyle, and unique perspectives of the locals.

Staying with someone who knows the city allows me to learn about hidden gems, local traditions, and authentic ways of life—things I could never fully experience as a tourist. I also love sharing stories, experiences, and positive energy, creating connections that often go beyond the trip itself.

I look forward to meeting amazing people and discovering the world through their eyes! 😊

Music, Movies, and Books

I really enjoy rhythmic and energetic music that keeps me motivated during my workouts. It’s the kind of vibe that pushes me to go the extra mile, whether it’s electronic beats, motivational pop tracks, or powerful hip-hop tunes. Music is such a great source of energy for me when I’m active!

That said, I also love lounge music for when I’m relaxing or unwinding. It’s perfect for creating a chill atmosphere after a workout or during quiet moments.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was born in a small country in Central Asia and moved to France in 2007 without knowing the language or having any family there. Despite these challenges, I learned French, completed my university studies in Economics and Management, and built a career as a professional. I worked as a senior manager—Mission Director—in an accounting firm.

At the same time, I pursued my dream of competing in the French Beach Volleyball Championship, which was an incredible experience. Looking back, I’m quite proud of my journey and the challenges I’ve overcome along the way.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share fitness tips or organize a beach volleyball session—it’s something I love doing! I can also teach French or Russian if you’re interested in learning new languages.

I’d love to learn everything about sports practices in Miami and explore how people stay active in other parts of the U.S. as well.

I’m excited to share positive energy and my passion for leading an active lifestyle. Let’s inspire each other! 😊

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’d love to share my passion for living an active and healthy lifestyle, whether through a fun beach volleyball session or just exchanging fitness tips and routines. I’m also open to sharing insights about life in France, especially in Marseille.
I’m eager to create meaningful connections, share good energy.
