ABOUT ME
I've been living in Moscow for 4 years, which means I know very little about the best places there, meanwhile I adore the City and d love to explore it with everyone who comes to visit the capital.
For me there are three missions on traveling:
EXPERIENCE
Moscow and it's region provide few opportunities for several sport activities, that's why I
visit Austria for snowboarding, Morocco for surfing, Egypt for scubadiving (hope one day I'll make free diving) or China for kung fu practice.
EXPLORE
Several years ago I recognized that sometimes I've missed particular, let's say, flavors of the countries I've been to. That's why nowadays I changed the way I organise my holidays in order to really explore locations: feel the sole of places I visit and get to know people I meet.
LEARN
Traveling for me is about hardly learning not by books but by reality. The sphere of my main interests are dance, music, cuisine, illustrations and philosophy. In the listed areas I'm an amateur (be aware about my extremely bad cooking skills). And I love to learn stories, no matter if they are based on facts, rumors or pure fantasy.
PHILOSOPHY
You Have to Work for your Happiness. Happiness must be struggled for. I never considered that more than just pathetic words. I might be wrong. That’s why I’m starting the half-year journey through Southeast Asia. I’m looking for hard work, but in a much broader meaning than before. Yes, sounds irrational (please, keep in mind that irrationality about me =).
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Although I‘ve registered on CS long ago, I have a very small experience here. I have no opportunity to host people, but from time to time I take part in CS meetings, gatherings and parties here in Moscow, and have some experience in greeting and showing around few CS visitors.
