About Me

I'm a Human Rights professional dedicated to helping displaced people and refugees while advocating for the rights of vulnerable and marginalized groups.

When I'm not working, I'm all about fun, socializing, adventure, spontaneity, and a laid-back approach to life. I have a deep passion for exploring new cultures and meeting fascinating people from all corners of the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have a genuine love for hosting guests and have welcomed nearly 500 people through various platforms like Couchsurfing, Warmshowers, and Facebook pages for fellow travelers.
In Tashkent, I was an active member of the Couchsurfing community. I thrive on sharing experiences, learning, and making new friends.
I'm always up for exciting activities, whether it's indoor fun, outdoor adventures like hiking and mountaineering, or exploring the local festivals, city landmarks, museums, and leisurely walks.

Interests

My interests include traveling, exploring languages and history, immersing myself in theater and cinema, delving into books, whipping up delicious dishes in the kitchen, enjoying music and dance, and, above all, making lasting friendships.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I ran a shelter for ostracized youth living with HIV, providing them with a safe and supportive environment to rebuild their lives, offering hope and a new perspective, and helping them cultivate a brighter outlook for the future.

I've been actively involved in assisting asylum seekers, helping them access crucial resources such as legal aid, healthcare, housing, and other necessary support to ease their transition and improve their lives in their new host country.
