About Me

I was born in Moscow and live here and sometime in Georgia.
I love big cities but i also love wild nature. Yes, I am still looking for a perfect mix of this 2 loves.
I hold a PhD in biology from russian Uni . And used to work for the biotech company till last summer here in Moscow.
I do like travelling, wild and unsupported. Only backpack tent stove and friends. Sometimes it can be trekkings, sometimes it can be bike trips, or snowshoe trips.
But what is always it should be beautiful and not overcrouded direction or destination.
I do have instagram @mylosteurasia where some of the travel adventures i had done till now are shown. I created it with my sister.
The reason why we created is firstly to memorize the places we have been and secondly to share the unbeaten destinations with other travelers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I do think such networks as couchsurfing make it easier to explore the world. Another great thingabout couchsurf is meeting foreign travellers in your own country
Through couchsurf i met my very good friend Anita. Anita, hey., Dude!

So the most preciouse of couchsurf for me that new people enter my life and some stay there! I love how it goes.
