About Me

ABOUT ME

I am a rather calm and serious person, except for the fact that I like singing, joking, dancing, playing music and expressing deep, idealistic emotion in fragile states induced by companionship, beer, or a combination of the former and more. Я спокойный, серезный человек, хотя люблю петь танцевать шутить, играть музыку и выражать глубокие, идеалистические эмоции, внушаемыйе пивом, обществом или сочетанием предыдущих.

PHILOSOPHY

I write a lot of things down on lots of pieces of paper in a few languages and leave those bits of paper lying about in different places. If I really wanted to, I could research them and construct a philosophy. However, I think that a miscelaneous thought on a piece of paper is fine and free as it is.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Five years ago I had a lot of couchsurfers staying over in an appartment, where I lived with a friend. The CS account was his, so theoretically I haven't participated in this at all yet. Right now I'm hoping to be a guest, and later, when I'm home, I'll be a host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Wonderful people, different people, interesting, friendly people. With most people I have talked for hours. Others have been quieter and I completely understand them. Прекрасные люди, разные люди, интересные люди. С большинством из них я разговаривал часами. Остальные были потише, поспокойнее и я их совершенно могу понимать.

Interests

Poetry, prose, classical music, rock music, folk music, music, the cinema, the theatre, birdwatching, riding a bicycle. Поэзия, проза, классическая музыка, рок-музыка, фолк-музыка, музыка, кино, театр, наблюдение птиц, катание на велосипеде.

Сергей Довалтов (Я перевел "Наши" и "Чемодан" на финский язык), Гоголь, Чехов.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I read lots of books. Я много читал, читаю и буду читать.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know most things. I can give lectures that are too long and very confusing. My favourite themes of mountaneering are literature, especially poetry, music, anarchism and different species of birds.

Also I can play the guitar, the harmonica and the tin whistle, which I'll be happy to introduce into your life as well as the lives of your unfortunate next door neighbours.

Я очень много знаю. Играю на гитаре, на гармошке и на ирландской дудке.
