Hi

I'm a curious soul who loves learning new languages and exploring different cultures. I have a background in electrical engineering, but my heart also beats for music and dancing. I play a few instruments, enjoy jamming whenever I get the chance and learn national dances.

I’m always up for a good conversation or just listening to stories about history, culture, music, or food from around the world. Before I travel somewhere, I do my best to learn the local language, not just to get by, but to connect with people on a deeper level and see the world through their eyes. I speak Kazakh, Russian, English fluently and have intermediate level in German, Spanish and Turkish. Knowledge of various family languages helps me to adapt to any environment.

I found out about Couchsurfing through my wife — she had been using it before me, and we’ve already hosted several travelers together. I recently created my own account so we can keep sharing experiences as a couple. Feel free to check her profile here to learn more about our hosting history: https://couchsurfing.page.link/TN633hnKd4xYG1Am8 .

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I’m on Couchsurfing because I love meeting people from different parts of the world, learning about their cultures, and exchanging ideas, stories, and experiences.

兴趣

Learning new languages is one of my biggest passions. It’s like unlocking a new way of seeing the world. I enjoy practicing with native speakers and picking up phrases while traveling. My favourite quote from a student of my uni "When you speak with the person a language he understands, the words go to his head. When you speak his mother language, the words enter his heart".
