Made in the Soviet Union, immigrated to the UK, and now living in Taiwan. I'm a British Kazakh who has been in Taiwan for more than 11 years and consider it my home. I'm a teacher at a cram school where I teach kids English. I live in a historical city called Tainan which is full of old buildings and amazing cuisine. If anyone is interested in teaching English whether it is part-time or full-time. Let me know, my school is looking for more teachers. The keyword is "Free Palestine". Here is a compilation of tourist attractions that are worth visiting in Tainan: Shannong Street(old street, looks beautiful in the evening) https://maps.app.goo.gl/KLc8r6jWM7E625mU9 Creative Park https://maps.app.goo.gl/PPgsHnXJkvFwrUQg6 Snail Alley https://maps.app.goo.gl/88AD5mLZSBXXns9B7 The Spring https://maps.app.goo.gl/qLKXYrwvtAzPARX38 Tainan Confucius Temple https://maps.app.goo.gl/Qa8cxigEJhiH6jVk9 Anping Old Fort(the highlight of the city) https://maps.app.goo.gl/LnRx8LSHse4Qj4U48 Former Tait & Co.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I'm here to meet fellow travellers, share our experiences and learn from each other . I follow the motto: Treat others as you want to be treated. So I would like to help travellers like myself cause I would appreciate it if someone would do that for me as well. And it's always fun meeting and hanging out with new people from different parts of the world and learning about them.
Music, Movies, and Books
I love to read and watch science fiction. Books: the Alchemist, Roadside Picnic, the Martian, Memoirs of a Geisha. TV shows: Star Trek, Battleship Galactica, 12 Monkeys, Games of Thrones, Fallout, Walking Dead, the 100, Silo and the Stranger Things. Movies: Interstellar, Back to The Future trilogy, Alien, Aliens, Terminator 1 and 2.
