ABOUT ME

Friends say, that I'm "fun man, who always try to create difficuties or complacations".
Direct flight to Maiami? No, we will fly to New York, rent a car and will go drive to Maiami and back.
Relocation 3000 kms to another city. By comfortable train? No, I bought 200 horse power car and move by it. If it would be not winter, would move by motobike.
2 days in train to mountings for 2 weeks hiking. In 2nd comfort class? No, in cheapest class - to see and travel with poor people or railway workers.
To employ specialists to buld small wood house? No, I bought tools and others, rent a friends. Finally spent a lot of money, a lot of time, drunk a lot of beer, final quolity of house will be lower - but made by ourselves.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It was during hiking in Polar Ural. Temp was about zero, windy rain with snow, we was wet and cold. And not far from us we have saw a tourisy tent. It is necessary to greet the tourist in mountains, and we go to it. In tent there was one man, he invited us, we came three together into small single tent, and still could put a tile and prepare coffee. It was the most tasty coffee in my life.

Interests

a lot...

hockey, best team game for men
boxing, I prefer to fight safely

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It was on second year of studiing in university. We travel by cars, trains, buses to another city. It was 3000 km and 10 days round trip. And on the start on trip we had only 200$. When returned we was very tired of trip, cause it was very difficult to sleep everywhere, except bad, eat everything, except normal hot food, drunk everithing, except normal beer.
