ABOUT ME

I'm melancholic but sometimes can be very energetic and talkative. I love meeting people and visiting places as anyone who is in this site, I guess. If you come to Moscow, contact me and I'll show you some places which tourists usually don't visit. I have my own Moscow with old streets, strange yards, wide avenues. I love rock music and Russian music which one researcher called "songs on seven strings". I also love poetry and literature and languages, I love writing, I love to listen to people telling stories of their lives. I love big cities, noise of streets, views from roofs. And I love nature, too, but, unfortunately, I don't know it very well.

PHILOSOPHY

Now or never.
If you love, love as much as you can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here to enjoy the company of wonderful people from all over the world.

I also feel like specifying the fact that I use CS STRICTLY with the purpose of travelling, meeting new people and making friends from all over the world. No other purposes. Thanks for understanding :)
