Bonjour! Hello! Привет! Olá!
Je parle français, I speak English, Eu falo português, Yo hablo en español, Я говорю на русском!

I was born in Ukraine where I lived for 15 years, then I lived an excellent 12 years in Portugal and now I am discovering the French Alps :)

I really love nature and outdoor life, maybe that why I made my studies in Tourism.
First I worked in sport events company, than on reception of hotel and correctly doing my dream job, working as expedition leader on Paganel.tv (http://paganel.tv/traveling/paganel-putish)

We are travelling around this beautiful world and helping people discover unique places!

ADVENTURES (that might describe me better):
- I made Camino de Santiago de Compostela (900km Pilgrim Way)
- Visited all 9 Azores Islands with my back pack
- Climb For Hope project - climbing the highest mountain in all countries of EU in one non stop car trip.
- Spend more than 6 months in South America
- Living Statue Performer/Artist
- Member of Pathfinders Club
- Have a cat, love dogs :)
- Filming and editing video of all my trips

In the and I'm simple, humble, honest guy, that loves discussion on all themes and topics.
Looking forward to meet more nice people around this world, during our adventures!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Must be the best way to visit and understand local life, spending time with couchsurfers. After 1st experience, I'm addicted to it.

There is nothing more powerful and appealing in life than meeting new people, observing different human faces, learning other languages and trying unknown lifestyles, diving into the deep of landscapes and reaching the top of mountains.
I say, there is not more rewarding for me than feeling free to tread my own path towards such a beautiful new world :) Kostya
