ABOUT MY CITY
I'm from provincial city of South Russia - Stavropol.
The population of my city is about 600 thousand people.
My city is small, quiet, peaceful and have a lot of forests and hills with beautiful views.
Around we have a lot of interesting things. We can ride to the Caucasus Mountains about two hours (about 220 km). Or we can ride to the Black Sea about 5-6 hours (500 km).

And what ABOUT ME?
I'm a friendly guy who loves to meet new people and visit new places.
Last time I went to travel on new for me cities of Russia. It was spontaneous and cool. I started my trip at music festival in Nizhny Novgorod. Where I met with the guys from Moscow and after festival we went to Moscow. Then I phoned my old friends and visit them in St. Petersburg. It was a cool summer! The next trip I began also at music festival in Nizhny Novgorod, and then went to my friends in Kazan. From Kazan we flew to the Black Sea and learned to ride a kitesurf...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because it's a very cool idea for meeting new people and traveling for new places.
It's great to come in new city and ask advice from people who live there. It's a different atmosphere. It is not traveling with the standart tour.

Interests

I love active sports. Even maybe extreme sport.
I ride a mountain bike in the school years. At university I went to the mountains and learned to ride a snowboard. It was in 2006. And now I snowboarding every winter. In the summer of 2007 I learned to fly a paraglide. So I snowboarding in winter and paragliding in summer. But I like to learn new sports and this year I learned to ride a kite. That's so cool! In the near future I will learn to surfing)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I jumped from the 40 meter tower with a rope (rope-jumping)

Teach, Learn, Share

Maybe you will be interested to know how to make websites and ad on the Internet?
Maybe teach snowboarding, paragliding, kitesurfing.
Maybe just to paraglide in tandem? (Like movie "Intouchables")

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can show my city and some beautiful views and landscape panorams. Maybe in summer weekend we will go to mountains together and will paraglide in tandem. Maybe in winter weekend we will snowboard together.
