Overview
About Me
Hi! My name is Sergei but everyone calls me Sam.
I moved to St.Petersburg in 2018. I like to ski, trek/hike, mountainbike. Also, some alpinism and rock climbing.
My biggest personal accomplishment is that I climbed Mt. Elbrus (5642 m) all the way on foot from the bottom to the top, carrying 23 kg backpack. It took nine days and I was lucky enough to not to die (because I felt so terrible) or lose any of my fingers (because of freezing temperatures).
Also, I'm fond of backpacking and volunteering in the Winter Olympics, organic farms, and kindergartens.
