I often come to different cities to work in anthropological repositories or excavations. Or just to see the places that interest me. I always do my best to ensure that my communication with a guest or host is PERFECT) I like to get up early and then spend a lot of time on my feet. I also play various musical instruments, especially strings) And I also like to live in the woods sometimes.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Generally: 1) Cultural exchange. I like to communicate and share my experience. 2) English practice. 3) I try to minimize commercial interactions between people and increase sincere gratuitous interactions . I am happy to provide another person with the opportunity to avoid interacting with capital in the form of paid hotels, and I am happy to avoid such interactions myself. You can consider this to be my "political" point of view (generally, I am not into politics, though) As a host: 1) The desire to help someone in his journey and to reinforce their faith in good people. This is a spiritual value for me. 2) Guests are my motivation to keep the house clean 3) Through guests, I enjoy the spirit of travel even when I stay at home As a guest: 1) Comfort. Living as a guest is almost always psychologically more comfortable for me than being a customer of a hotel. 2) I just like to be a guest of a truly good host. Sometimes I really can come to some town only because I liked your profile on Couchsurfing! 3) I love adventures! 4) I like to study the living conditions of average people in every country I come to. This is one of the goals of my journey.

One Amazing Thing I've Done
Once, I washed all the dishes after a meal for an entire monastery! I caught more than 10 bats on my student biological practice (we let them go, everything is fine with them). I participated in the biggest peaceful people gathering of history. And I also graduated from Moscow State University with honours

What I Can Share With Hosts
I usually give hosts gifts from my village. But sometimes they can end up during the trip, sorry( Of course, I can tell you a lot of interesting stories. But if you are a extremely experienced traveler, then I'm afraid I won't surprise you too much) Then we'd better talk about anthropology I can instead become a host in Moscow - if I am there on suitable dates
