About Me

I used to be a journalist and now I am a home repair specialist writing his first novel. I sometimes call myself the reporting repairman.

I am an introvert, but I’d rather take a walk than stay at home. Especially if it’s a long walk with my new friends in the new city. This is one of the best things in life — to change the routine for some new colors. While walking, I can tell my new friends all I know about the cultural, political, and social life in my country.

If I may quote Kurt Vonnegut’s Cat’s Cradle, ‘As Bokonon says, Peculiar travel suggestions are dancing lessons from God’. Only I prefer to organize the trips myself, as I don’t want to be sitting on the couch and waiting for things to happen. Although sitting on the couch could be really nice, especially when having a good conversation and a hot cup of tea.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I haven’t traveled for a while and now I want to go to as many countries as I can. I am here to share my time with you and take some of your time as well. Technologies bring us together, isn’t it great?

Music, Movies, and Books

Depeche mode, Dead can dance, Orbital, Red hot chili peppers, DJ Krush, Tricky, Blonde redhead, Arcade fire, Sade and over few hundret others.

As for books and films - oh, it's a long story, where, for example, Vonnegut walks next to Nabokov and Murakami, and Tarkovsky - along with Tarantino and Aronofsky.
