CURRENT MISSION

travel and live my life and enjoy the things and people and ideas i encounter along the way...

ABOUT ME

hmmm i am a generally outgoing and fun guy, i think... i like to hang out and party and explore and go on adventures, but i also enjoy a night in just as much, cooking dinner and reading a book and passing out.

i dunno...i guess, basically, i get down.

PHILOSOPHY

"Why do you live your life? Feelings? Thoughts?"

...i think you already answered the first question for me.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

right now just trying to couch surf while im moving around but am looking forward to having a consistent situation either here in Russia or back in the states so that i can host people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

most recently i spent the last two or so weeks with my friend Dmitri Yakovlev making our way back from Olkhon Island to Irkutsk and Ulan Ude, where we hung out on his home turf and he gave me places to stay and everything. was great.

have been a de facto couch surfer for some time...i met Dima working on the island and then he kind of got me into CS. i couchsurfed in Mongolia with a couple guys and had a blast. i stayed for a while (probably too long) but it was all good and i ended up doing some work for them, and they didnt kick me out so i guess that means im a good guest...right? i dunno...

at any rate, i hope that that can vouch for my lack of recommendations and information and whatnot...
