Hello!

My name is Konstantin, or briefly Kostya. (https://www.instagram.com/zhuzhelen)

I am an entrepreneur in digital marketing from Moscow, currently living in Almaty, Kazakhstan. In addition to that I give lectures on Internet Marketing in Institute of Business Studies of Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration under the President of the Russian Federation.

My girfriend Dasha works as a tutor in Russian language and literature. She likes arts and discovering new cultures. (https://www.instagram.com/morskaya_dahota)

Our mutual passions are traveling, sports and intellectual games. We don't drink alcohol, don't smoke and behave ourselves =)

What is more, we like cooking delicious food (and eating it, of course), watching good films and spend time with interesting people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is the best way to explore new places for me. Small talk with the locals will tell you about the country you visit much more than a guide!
