All my life I live in Moscow, Russia. And about 10 years ago I decided to change everything and started to travel. At first it was traveling on work and holidays with my family (I worked on television, and now I work as a travel -journalist for Russian publications and on-line portals and blogger as well).
But now my children have grown up and become independent and I can spend on travel most of my time, because I work as a freelancer.

Sometimes I write articles for Russian publications or compose guidebooks after my travels.
I'm sure that if I can help someone on his travels, the world will become a little bit better and kinder :)))

I have an easy unpretentious character. I can be happy with small nice things what life presents for us

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like meeting new people and communicate with them, adopt their culture and share mine own.
I like to come to new cities and towns and explore them "with my feet." - That's why I could be happy if I have a local escort

I love all books Haruki Murakami, also I like to read Erich Maria Remarque, Frankoise Sagan and Russian modern writers
