ABOUT ME

I m a traveler. Since 2005 I have visited 50 countries of Europe, Asia and Africa. The past six years I'm organizing group tours to India and Nepal. My education is Fine Arts, I worked as a portraitist in south-west Turkey. When I travel I observe different peoples, different minds. I am trying to understand what the World is. I am happy to be in it, this experience creates me as a person, to be in the unity with the whole World is the most important mission for me. I had amazing experience with couchsurfers - both hosts and guests. I think it is very interesting and sensible social network designed to widen the international dialogue. Just imagine - you can write to someone from completely different corner of the world and you may be invited by an interesting, friendly, and hospitable person, who most probably will became your good friend for the rest of your life! As for my experience - I was lucky enough to be invited by some really good CS members in Oulu, Rovaniemi, Helsinki, Rome, Florence, Stockholm, Paris, Amien, Antverpen, Gent, Eindhoven, Thessaloniki, Sofia, Yalta, Birmingham, Liverpool, Leeds, Edinburgh, Dundee, Inverness, Glasgow, Manchester . Or once you may receive a request from some nice fellow travelers, as it happened to me and I hosted some German cyclists, French hitchhikers, travelers from Moscow, and Minsk. All of it was unforgettable experience! To see more information on me in Russian social network "vkontakte": https://vk.com/id77735511
