Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Unfortunately most of the times I used CS only as a surfer because I rent a small room and can't host people :(
But I really want to get the host experience. Hopefully I'll find such opportunity soon. Anyway if you have a difficult situation feel free to ask me about help, I'll do my best.
If I have time I can show you Moscow.

Interests

Now my goal is open my own business. I have some ideas and projects but I don't have a team. I hope the Universe will hear me and gives me people with the same interests :)

I like to take photos. I'm not a professional photographer, I'm only learning but it's very interesting for me.
