CURRENT MISSION

To find my better self...

ABOUT ME

damn, this one is the hardest one :)
Traveling around the world made me think about many things that I am. It made me finally come to terms with myself being Russian and learn to respect my country however broken and unfortunate it is.
It made me see that however different the countries have made us, we share much more in common than we think.
And also that I hate writing. So I am gonna cut myself short right here and let you see who I am from other profile sections which are much easier to fill in :)

PHILOSOPHY

I believe there is no other purpose of life but to be happy. The rest is a mystery that a human mind will never grasp.
Overall, I have quite a scientific attitude towards the universe and all the metaphysical stuff. But somehow Yoga philosophy fits quite well into my picture of the world and beyond.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I go to CS meetings at Lorelei quite often.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I never really had the chance to host. So now that I have a new place with a couch I'd like to experience the other side of a CS life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I think I can share some knowledge about yoga and vegetarian cooking. Anything you want to know about my country goes without saying :)

I'd like to learn more about the Asian part of the world. India, Japan, China, Nepal or Cambodia, you name it. I want to know everything about the life and traditions there.
I also have a long standing fascination for Finland and its language.
