I'm a software developer in Siberia, Russia. I used to travel a lot but now I'm staying in Siberia for longer periods of time between travels and travels become shorter.

I like rock climbing. This is hard sport that allows me to hit my limits. It is also very nice to meet people in different countries who do climbing too to climb together. Rock climbing allows me to climb to great view points while enjoying climbing itself.

I like horse riding. Horses are great animals and it is a lot of fun to ride them and to teach them how to ride properly. I like animals; I have old cat of mine who live with my parents while I'm travelling.

I don't like cold weather. We have down to minus 45 degrees celcium each winter and each winter I'm trying to go out of here. But if I not successed with leaving Siberia for winter I somehow manage to get used to that kind of weather and bear it silently. But the first 2-3 weeks of cold are terrible.

The shame is, that my skin type does not allow me to stay more than 15-30 minutes under open sun (duration highly depends on the weather). In the best times (when I lived in Thailand while winter was in Siberia) I had 5 different sun blocker creams, each one for different case. I always have sun blocker cream with me when weather is sunny =)

I like to improve my skills no matter what kind of skill is that and no matter how usefull is that. Therefore I realize time needed to be spend to improve a skill to desired level and I realize do I have this time or not.

I don't have driver's license. But I rode the motorcycle and motorbike in Thailand much. In my home city the fastest way to get from A to B in downtown it is usual bike. So I have bike, but not car. Some of my friends can ride bikes even in minus 20, but it is not about me - I prefer public transport in such weather.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I like to talk to people. I like to listen ideas despite how crazy they are. I like to listen stories. And of course I like to tell mine's.
