Hi! I'm an open-minded fellow from Russia trying to make his way through life, as we all are.

Study computer science, play the guitar and eager to explore the world.
Know Brodsky's, Asadov and Robert Rozhdestvensky poetry by heart and can tell some during evening talks ^-^
I'm also love long meaningful conversations and interesting stories about almost everything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To feel what "total immersion" realy is, find locals in cities all over the world and get new experience in life.

Of course I can stay at the hostel during my trips, I have money for this. But I want to make new friends on my way, I want to stay in contact with them after leaving. There is a theory "Six degrees of separation" (all people in the world are in six steps away from each other). And I want to feel it, to become part of it - it's amazing to notice that two guys from different continent have a couple of common friends.
City without people aren't city, we are an inalienable part of it. So I want to meet new people, the soul of city, and of course just have fun together =)
