Hey there! I’m Bekarys, a cybersecurity professional and traveler from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿.
I lead Tumar.One, the largest bug bounty platform in Central Asia, and work closely with security researchers, startups, and governments across the region. My world is full of hackers (the good kind!), code, and coffee.

Outside of work, I love exploring new cities, talking to locals, and finding those hidden gems, the small cafes, markets, and random places that don’t show up on Google Maps. I’ve been to several countries for conferences and programs, and I enjoy connecting with people who have completely different perspectives and stories.

I’m very open-minded, respectful, and curious, always down for a deep conversation about technology, culture, or life in general

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet curious people, share stories, and see cities through local eyes.
