Hi! I'm a traveler from Russia. I don't have a permanent home, but when I stay in one place for a long time I always act as a host and have already hosted about 30 people in my home country. I have also often been a guest outside of Couchsurfing.

I travel with a minimal budget and love learning about other people's lives and cultures. I enjoy learning new languages, although I still haven't mastered English — and, as it turned out, relatively few people in the world speak it!:) All the countries I travelled through I crossed mostly by hitchhiking and, where possible, by hydrostop (hitching rides on boats); where that was not possible — by plane.

I am a creative person and worked in video production and content creation all my life. I am worked with leading companies in my country. Now I have set off to travel and to find myself!
My hobby also is modern dance.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I prefer to learn about cultures and people by interacting with them personally.
Why do they live the way they do?
What makes this country different from another?
I answer these questions not in tourist resorts but in slums, I prefer to see life rather than a picture on the cover of a magazine or a video blog about this or that country.
I want to find good acquaintances or even friends, because my life, though full and happy, is full of loneliness
I also want to improve my English and Spanish so that I can communicate freely with people all over the world.
