Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As I have a enough friends between California and Vladivostok, I always found shelter with them (or their friends), so no need to use couchsurfing to find me a couch so far ;) However, it as worked incredibly well as a tool for meeting up with fellow travelers and locals when on the road, so here I am!

Interests

History, international politics on the serious side... as well as traveling, especially the former Soviet countries. I got quite some stories from there to tell and if you always considered a trip to Russia or Ukraine, I am the guy you can ask for survival tips in Europe's wild East.

"Harris and I had been hard at work on our German during several weeks at that time, and
although we had made good progress, it had been accomplished under great
difficulty and annoyance, for three of our teachers had died in the mean
time."
- Mark Twain, The Awful German Language
That being said, I am ready to die for you - or at least help you bit with your German (or English).
