Upd*** Actually I'm not in Brest, I've been trucking around Europe, but still in case of emergency you can ask me to stay. I'll resend a request to my GF. )) low percentage but she'll go into details in your profile I guarantee))
So, here you're welcome to see "brief" description of me. No AI used to create this ;)
I'm a quite typical guy, who was born in the heart of Europe(quite controversial point, but I learnt this from my pupil book at the age of 9, so I'm 101 % confident in it).
So, if you're still up to read more facts and you're fed up with my attempt to stend up my views, let's move on! =)
I was born in Belarus, in Brest(yeah, 3 times per month I get requests in French, asking me if I can show around) =))
I've spent almost all my life living here, and I sincerely fed up with it, it's all about feeling the rush to get more comfortable with yourself firstly through learning, teaching, discovering, sharing experiences, somehow the picture of my city is that extremely boring to me, that I can't admire nothing but the opportunity to be anywhere else. Quite typical for CSfer, but it's fair to mention. ;)

I graduated as economist, and manager who supposed to be a pro in house development industry. But life and choices made me out of the point and I've spent most of my life reselling stuff(like old mobile phones for collectors itc), teaching to play tennis and pool, from time to time as taxi driver and eventually as truck driver(not bad opportunity to discover new landscapes through the smell of asphalt ;)

Fortunately or not, I know much about gambling addiction as the guy who spend few years of active involvement in tennis and snooker betting. What doesn't kill us, makes us stronger if we got not too weak, doesn't it? =)
That's really unique experience, because I can realise what people go through getting high, alco, sport and different more or less positive addictions we used to fulfill.
I'm crazy about psychology structures people use to stay healthy and happy, ways that can help to overcome more successfully.

Also I'm a big animal lover, I had a dog for 13 years and I'm proud of every single day I got better as a person because it(she) teached me what love means. It's still the moment I'm sad, but all we got through is much more worthy than that tragic last day of her life.

I used to take part in volunteering activities, taking care of dogs, walking around, feeding, cleaning, sitting, wanna learn techniques to control them better.

Upd: oh, sure, I spend all my childhood doing tennis drills, so I'm not too easy partner to beat, at least if you just started to play)

Huge fun of any billiards.

I know, but not follow much stuff about healthier and budget diets, let's see together if something will change in any perspective. (25.02.24)
I'm the guy who used to listen historical podcasts and be surprised all the time, that nothing changes but technologies and spirit to find your own definition of happyness and freedom! =))

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

That's one of these perfect places, where you can find people who tries to find something new, who opens its mind to make a step ahead for a better understanding of life and first of all its own comfort zones and needs.

Also the best option to know life of different groups of people, which are up to meet up.

Interests

Literally everything if it's represented by passionate people, I'm really shocked when I can be involved in something like rocket science or the basic work schedule in some monastery. So I'd describe my natural interest in people who could light me up for something, and of course people who are up to learn something from me. We're all have some value in this world, let me be judged ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hope to add in the section more mountain peaks, days in open ocean and other bright stuff, but for the moment I'm proud to find real friend around the world, to know that I'm not worthless from the point of support as a human being, proud to have feelings, not that cold as typical slavic))

Teach, Learn, Share

1) my personal experiences of low budget travelling, hitchhiking, cooking experience
2) introduction to slavic culture(with historical and political side if it's needed), Russian and Belarusian language can be polished in few seconds ;) the way I think and see as slavic.)))
3) all touching psychology of us(it was described earlier), trucking experiences.
More than 3 but it's too overwhelming you to number each small piece of my knowledge I could share.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can be as flexible as it's needed according to your culture, rules, schedule.
From talking and being up for any rush to staying invisible if it's needed.
I respect personal and house rules, so no surprises.

Literally anything, as it's written in CS ideology) no irony. I can cook a dinner, baby or petsit with your lovely ones, I'm up for any sort of renovating, restoring stuff. Of course all your questions and curiousity about my life and background are open to be undercovered :)
No hesitation, I'm not here for free hotel dreams. I'm trying to save my budget as much as possible and of course CS is a nice option for this too, but it's not the major purpose of my presence in the project.

Feel free to make me know if I could be useful, I'll try my best!
