Hey! My name is Danny.
At the age of 16, I realized that I was not interested in classical education and went to learn how to brew coffee in the coolest coffee house of the Perm company in 2017. There I fell in love with coffee and the hospitality industry (cafes, coffee houses, restaurants). In this team I met my mentors and friends in work and life. I learned how to make coffee and then we jointly opened a large coffee shop with a concert hall, where live music concerts, lectures, theatrical performances and other performances are held almost every day (I dreamed of this since I was 13).
At the same time, we created the Vegan Milk brand, having come up with a recipe and concept from scratch. All these projects are still working today, even at such a difficult time for Russia.
During these 5 years, I realized that I love to do something for people, something that they will fall in love with and share with loved ones.
I am a vegetarian since 2019.
A bit of an actor in amateur theater and play-back theater.
Love spontaneity.
And madly in love with the nature of the whole world. I dream of traveling and looking at the beauty around, meeting interesting people, sharing my experience with them and adopting them. At some point, I realized that I could no longer sit still and it was time to take a backpack and go on a trip.

Yes, I am basically an entrepreneur.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

my inner traveler can no longer sit still. I want to see this world and the people who live in it and what they do. Staying in hotels and hostels is difficult to find like-minded people and just interesting people. And I heard a lot about Couchsurfing from my friends and acquaintances who already travel and travel like that. I also think that the money system should not force a person to pay for life. And this service gives such an opportunity with the help of interchange.
