I grew up in Moscow, Russia, then spent 16 years of my life in Canada. I am an entrepreneur and counseling psychologist.
I run and and I coach runners at the Moscow Running Club. As a kid I spent almost every summer in Latvia. I still love to visit this country every chance I get.
I lived in New York City, Toronto and Montreal.
Love a good conversation, a walk or even a run together, my city or yours).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love stories and life stories are the most fascinating. Meeting people from different countries reminds me of how the world is, on one hand, small, and on the other - huge in terms of the ways people deal with the "human condition". Besides, when I travel, I prefer to see the places I go to with someone local. That way I see the city from the "inside". Plus sharing time, walks, coffee and what not, with another person positively makes for a better experience.
Oh, I almost forgot to mention, I love motorcycles and I ride Suzuki Hayabusa. ))
