Originally I am from Russia, but I am a nomad. Now I am living in Dominican Republic, more than 2 years.

I am a biologist by education, former zookeeper, former entrepreneur. But I just work where I can and explore the world.

I like to meet new people and see the ways how people live. There are no strangers, here only friends you haven’t meet.

My favorite things to spend time:
1. Walking around the city and watching locals;
2. Exploring zoos, parks, botanical gardens, nature reserves in…
3. Museums (mostly ethnographic or natural history or any others)
4. I don’t mind camping and hiking
5. Nice vibe parties

My small hobbies:
1. Physical activity: functional exercises, yoga, exotic pole dance (I do it for 5 years)
2. Reading
3. Making handcrafts
4. Learning English and Spanish
5. Trying National food

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing

I am interested in cultural exchange and communication with new people.

Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem(-am)

It’s hard to chose one.

1. Once I washed a 170 cm long (juvenile) crocodile alone (a holdover from working at the zoo)

2. Once I was walking along the coast during the beginning of a hurricane in Manila (the capital of the Philippines)
