Hello! My name is Maksim, I am 29 years old (although you hardly thought about it while looking at the photo). I was born, raised and live in my favorite city of Voronezh, this is in Russia. But for several years now - I travel a lot! I drove the whole continent on my minivan: from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic, and this spring I traveled beyond the Arctic Circle to the Arctic Ocean to see the northern lights! If you read this: I’m probably somewhere in Asia - where exactly, I’m not sure, but know - this is the first time I am here! I will be infinitely glad to meet new people and experience from other travelers! I will be happy to tell you about my adventures and teach you something new!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a traveler and I know that it is really necessary to study a country not through postcards and pages on the Internet, but through people who live in this country.

Interests

Now - I want to build a van (camper) to go on a long journey. Also, I have a street food restaurant project that I plan to implement in the spring. I have a lot of tattoos and I really like music - from Notorius BIG to Joy Division :)
