I'm a fan of low-cost travelling that allows you to "dive" into the athmosphere of the place. Backpacking, national parks, camping, remote wild places, pristine nature, small cosy towns, abandoned places in big cities, renting a bike - that's what I like.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It seems to be an enlightening and enriching experience

Music, Movies, and Books

Documentaries, memoirs and non-fiction. "Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey" is one of my favourites.

What I Can Share with Hosts

For a number of reasons unfortunately I have no opportunity to invite people to my place.

But instead I can show the city and tell smth about its history - I'm not bad at it :) besides I usually have some free hours at daytime to spend with travelers.

In my home city, Kazan, I also try to bring my guests not only to popular tourist-oriented places, Kremlin, museums and etc, but to explore silent and cozy streets.
