My name is Dan. I am a twenty years old student from Moscow, Russia. I am a traveler and adventure seeker that into sports, music, psychology. In the past, I was a professional footballer and these days with a big love for this game I play twice or thrice a week. Also, there is nothing better than being in the mountains therefore I started my alpine ski instructor career and do hike trips to the Caucasus every year. Since childhood, I am playing the guitar and as my techniques became better, I created a couple of my own songs. Lastly, I would say that having a chat with a cup of tea or coffee in the morning or having evening brainstorms with my friends is the best thing you can wish

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Right now I am traveling all over Europe. I am looking for great experiences, quiet and warm couches and unpredictable and spontaneous friendships.
Couchsurfing. Despite the fact that I am new to the community and don't know much about it I still assure and feel that by traveling and finding new people you can find something unexpected and curious. I hope that it will help me to travel with closed eyes, create space to feel and follow my dreams

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to rock/alternative rock like Arctic Monkeys
electronic music, hip hop, indi pop (Baauer, The XX, Teriyaki Boyz)
movies: Inception, Need for speed, The Shawshank Redemption

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once I saved the cat.
It was winter in Moscow. I and my friends were playing football and suddenly I heard meowing from somewhere. It turned out it was a small cat under the playground. I asked for advice from my relatives and we decided to take him to our home. We created a shelter for him near the flat, cared for him including the doctor and medicines. Finally, we got the healthy, strong cat that we handed over to a friend of our family. It was really the day of bravery and courage.
