FOREWORD:

Read this carefully before writing to me and don't judge me stricly for that (there are reasons):

- I can deny hosting you without any explanation as to why
- In order to stay with me you have to read my profile thoroughly, paying most attention to the basics of the house & linked article.
- In the couch-request you need to answer the below questions (so I'm sure you have at least done the second point):

1. What is the name of the person I live with?
2. What food we don't have in the house?
3. Can you stay in the house while we are away?

CURRENT MISSION

Learn as much about life as possible!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCH-SURFING:

My experience in hosting has been limited in couchsurfing - hosted only friends from afar. But now that me and my gf have moved to a better location with less in-house problems, we are open for any good people looking for a host.

I really loved the couchsurfing community from the first meeting I attended and I guess that's the love for life unless the community becomes spoiled.

But I know that there can always be some misunderstanding among people - not only because there are ill-intentions, but also because we have different expectations from the experience.

That's why I want all my guests to read & consider following what is said in the article below :

Anyway I also want to write the following basics of the house:

BASICS OF THE HOUSE:

1. This house is a community for travelers to meet other like minded people. Try to include each other in activities and share with each other. If you are just looking for a place to sleep while you spend you days off by yourself then this is not the house for you.

2. Look after the house. If you make a mess then clean it up. help each other to maintain a clean pleasant house to be in.

3. There is no smoking in the house. You can smoke outside.

4. Do not take others things with out asking. food is not free so please do not eat things that are not yours without asking first.

5. Offer to help. It is a nice way to show your gratitude.

6. Never invite people into the house without the hosts permission. Generally I want to meet people first before I let them into my home.

7. We are vegan! We can help you out with shopping / ordering any food you want, but we don't have / we don't cook any meat / milk products.

8. Generally we accept people on week-ends but workdays is possible too. But we work from Monday to Friday (house without us from 7:10 - 17:20) and it's not possible to leave you in the house alone. Sorry but you will have to leave with us and plan some activities outside for this time.

Interests

Music has been my passion for years. I love listening to music, has been playing in a rock-band for around 5 years, now learning to sing.

Last year I bought enduro-bike so that's my other hobby.

Also I like doing sport-activities like: snowboarding, running, cycling.

And of course I love reading books & watching films in original (if it's in English or Russian, doh).
