Hey guys! I'm novice at couchsurfing so I'm on the very beginning on this path of being hosted or inviting somebody.
As about me- I was born in the Far East of Russia -in Kamchatka (bears, volcanoes, earthquakes etc.). So I love to travel a lot. It means I'm fond of nature and love to go to mountains as well as to the cities, find friends there, share the cultures and discuss something common.

Instead of tourism I've spent three month studying in Germany (Jena, Thueringen).
Currently I'm doing my Ph.D. in law (on securities accounting).
I used to work as a tourism guide in Kamchatka, as a lawyer and university teacher. So you can get to know something about geology, volcanology, interstate commerce and Russian law:)
I speak Russian, English and German (the latter-on basic level). When I travel to particular country I try to learn the very basics of the language so you can have lots of fun listening to my attempts to talk to you:)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to share the knowledge and experience in traveling.

Interests

Instead of traveling- different kinds of music. Good literature (Tolstoy, Dostoyevsky, Russian poets of the 20th century, Balzac, Dreiser, Galsworthy etc.)

• traveling
• jazz
• mountains
• local cuisine

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well I love to help people as a volunteer. But I'm not used to share the information about the good things I do:)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Well, instead of talks I will surely bring you something special from Russia- be this a rock from Kamchatka's volcano or Russian traditional painted tea-tray. Or anything you like (but I'm not experienced in bears and vodka).
