I'm a rambler who lived in 6 countries and 11 cities and met lots of unique people along the way which seriously influenced my views on life. I used to manage a small NGO and later settled down in Berlin ( I do partnership development for an open-source software company here). I'd love to keep meeting awesome people through this app.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Even though Couchsurfing has changed a lot in recent years, it's still a platform with a disproportionately amazing crowd - most of the people I met here were special and we managed to easily connect and keep in touch. I have a strong passion to discover more places and would like to talk to people with the same mentality.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

During our trip to Sri Lanka once I and my friends got lost in Trincomalee (a small coastal city in Eastern Sri Lanka) and asked monks to let us spend the night in Hindu Temple. So, I've slept the whole night on the floor of this temple.

I can tell you a few more amazing stories when we meet! ;)

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I believe the point of life is to find one and sharpen it until it shines. That way it's only yours and no one else's. This is what wakes me up in the morning, anyway.

Also, I think the healthy life begins at the point when we stop trying to prove something

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

I grew up in a Russian speaking family and can teach you some Russian words if you want. I can share some food and my travel, work and volunteer experiences. If I have enough time, I can show you some of my favorite parts of Berlin as well as some good spots for drinks.
