I live in Tallinn, Estonia. I graduated from the teaching of Russian Language at Tartu University. I can communicate in English, Russian, Estonian, and Turkish. We love traveling with my wife and we know sometimes how difficult to find a normal place to stay and therefore we are here to host people when we are available.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

1st reason - When I go to a city for the first time, it means nothing to me to look at the buildings and take a single photo of them. I'm more interested in their stories. Because appearances are nothing without a story. And the best way to learn about them is to meet the local people.
2nd reason - Once upon a time, we had a dream of traveling around the world with my late brother, just with a backpack. We have a small tourism business in Turkey and we have hosted dozens of travelers there. Even though my brother can't be with me anymore, I want to realize our dream gradually. Therefore, I think it's time to take action now.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

While I was only able to save a part of our own house in the great forest fire in western Turkey last summer, I saved 3 of our neighbors' houses as well. The entire village was evacuated because it was impossible to see or breathe through the smoke. When I went back into the fire to save our own house, I saw that half of our house was on fire. Since the electricity and water were cut off, the only solution was to get water from the sea. I extinguished the house by drawing water from the sea with a tractor and saved our neighbors' houses by putting out the fire on the roof. (I know it doesn't sound very realistic, but it is)
