I'm an ex-photographer (2008-2013), an ex-designer (2012-2018) an ex-IT-wizard (2000-2018) and currently I do marketing and management in online marketplaces. I'm Russian since 1984. A little shy about it since early 2022.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I don't know, why does the site mention, that I'm the member since 2014, because I liked the idea of Couchsurfing in 2009, when I registered here.
I like meeting people, get acquainted, make friends. I like comparing different traits of foreign cultures to mine.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I've built a house. Only one, right?

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I can teach Russian, I can teach (or at least give some useful tips) about photography, I would like to improve my English and French. I'm very weak in German, I'd like to learn it though. If you speak Esperanto, we could try to practice it also, but I've never tried to speak aloud to a person, my experience is some duolingo and books only.

Länder, die ich besucht habe

Belarus, Egypt, Turkey, Ukraine, United States
