Mountains and everything connected with them are my main passions. I do mountaneering, hiking, climbing and long-distance running. I simply love travelling, pushing myself out of the usual limits, meeting new people, getting to know new cultures and discovering something new about myself while doing all this.

I try to be always open and sociable with anybody - on the condition that people try to do the same. Although I'm russian and we're known to be a bit grim, I try to smile as much as I can. :)

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

For now I' m working in Paris as an assistant teacher of Russian in the lycees Fénelon and Henri IV and I can't afford too much on my salary. Living here in Europe opens so much opportunities for travelling, so I' m trying to do that as much as I can. That's why I decided to give CS a try. Besides, staying in hostels became too boring for me because it's not always easy to find a company for hanging out. And the last but not least - I simply love meeting new peolple. :)

Музыка, кино и книги

A while ago I used to listen to different types of metal, I ve even been to Wacken and Brutal Assault festivals a couple of times, but now I'm open to almost any music genre. Anyway, I do listen lots of post-rock (Collapse under the empire, Exxasens, God is An Astronaut etc.) and death metal (lots of bands).

I simply adore thrillers. I guess my favourite one is Se7en by David Fincher. Star Wars is also out of the question - I try to rewatch it every year. )

Books - that's where it all starts to be messy! ) I could discuss it for hours...

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

Oh, I've done lots of amazing things. I've been many times in mountains and I'm not gonna stop in the nearest future. I climbed the mount Elbrus at Caucasus. I took a part in Paris marathon and finished with the time record 3:59:21. I traveled a lot in Asia. The list is open to suggestions. :)

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

I'm teacher of Russian and English so I could teach you a couple of words for sure. If that seems too boring to you, I know a couple of very very funny russian alcoholic games. :) Else we could pass our time having some beer and chatting about mountains - I got lots of stories!

Good company, I guess. Or I could clean up your house - I love doing that. :)
