Welcome, my dear friend!

I'm Yernar from Kazakhstan.

Nowadays, I live in Budapest where I completed my bachelor's degree in Hotel Management. I work at the Four Seasons Hotel Budapest. I am passionate about hospitality business, its future perspectives just amaze me and cannot really imagine myself in another sphere.

The favourite activity: having a cup of tea or coffee with my brothers and sisters. It may sound so simple, but that gives me joy and makes me truly happy.

Current Mission: discovering own-self every single day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Bless the one who came up with this idea!

Couchsurfing gives amazing opportunities for travellers to explore a certain place in a different way. To look at things from the perspective of the locals.

Meeting fantastic people, listening to their life-changing stories, getting advises regarding the hidden treasures of a certain area.
