CURRENT MISSION

Opening SEA; Make people smile and bring summer to every place

ABOUT ME

Actually, I can write a huge essay about everything that surrounds me or don't write anything.

I'd like to choose the second option 'cause I'm rather lazy :)

But I think it would be useful to mention few things about my habbits and preferences for those who wants to have a deal with me:
- I prefer not to eat any meat at all
- I prefer not to drink alcohol
- I like when people say that they really want to say not taking "propriety" or "etiquette" into the account
- I like not to take care about the rules :) but I strongly respect freedom and preferences of other people.

I have a wife and a 3-years old son Fedya, and usually we are travelling together. Fedya is an experienced traveller already, so travelling and hosting him is more fun than a disaster :)

PHILOSOPHY

In common: don't worry, be happy :)

If you want some more:
- you are the soul not the body!
- the God (or Universe depending on your vision) is the best friend of all living creatures;
- money is a thought up way of deception;
- every man is good, someone just doesn't know it about himself;

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting, travelling and sharing joy and happinness

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I highly appreciate such communities like Rainbow-people, and I adore the idea. I like to surf because it helps me to dive into life and rhythm of new places in my life.
I like to host people because it's always a pleasure to do something good for other people.

And to know a person, to look on the outer world with his eyes is much more valueable than any plain touristic experience.

Interests

Music - I adore making sounds :) I'm fond of jam sessions, concerts and outdoor music festivals.

The Earth - it is a great present that was given to us on our birth and it is rather silly not to explore it.

Spiritual partices - heaven is getting closer every day.

To learn new things :)

Intellectual games - like Jeopardy or so.
