Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Houses and cities are just a shell for people and communities, so for me connecting with locals is the most important way to understand a place. I participate as a traveller and soon hope to get a place of my own, to be a part of this sharing culture.

One Amazing Thing I've Done
One evening my friend and I walked around a city and by some impulse we bought train tickets on the station and appeared on a highway in hundreds of kilometers far from home. It was a long summer starry nignt, full of strange talks, meets and insights. That time I got that world can be trusted.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teaching: bad russian words, how to repair socks, some recipes, how to find the colours which will look good on you, how to understand the contemporary art and more of design, art and management things which I just have learned. I want to learn languages (currently Italian and French), danse salsa&tango, to know more adventurous stories and things people can be passionate about.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Some russian stories (my classmates find them funny at least) Some northern food (especially if you have an oven), my knitting skills, drawings and sometimes I can make something nice out of trash, but I need an inspiration.
My Interests
I like cooking, dancing and speaking about world's destiny. I'm interested in psychology, design, art, history, nature, technology, social sciences, adventures, abandoned buildings and parcour. Also I love insects and diesel engines.
