My name is Dmitriy, I am from Moscow (Russia).

I discovered self-organized traveling in 2006 when was sitting in train from Moscow to Samara - that's was the starting of big Journey.

Working in Banking industry for more than 10 years, dealing with people, projects and data. I have degree in Maths and IT. Married.

Traveling for me now - it's not just discovering new place. It's about discovering myself, finding smh new in my inner space. Or just having a fun :)

I love road-trips by car (Russia and Europe), airplains to another part of the world, trains and buses (with good music in headphones).

Most exciting travel experience:
- Kamchatka's volcanos;
- National parks in US;
- Car-ride from Moscow to France through Belarus, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium;
- Siberia: beautiful Altai and Baikal;
- Mumbai business-trip;

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
