Hi! My name is Rodion. I'm from Saint Petersburg, Russia. Now I live in Antalya, Turkey - nope:) UPD: Now I live in Joensuu, Finland! Most people describe me as a calm and relaxed person which I think it's true. I'm an independent and flexible traveler, I enjoy spending time alone but also to meet new people. I prefer spending time with 1 person or with a small group of people rather than being at crowded events.

I will do my best to make your stay as comfortable as possible, wherever I live.

I will be happy to meet you, to hear your story and to spend time together🙌🙌🙌

I'm a Spanish translator, musician, love everything related to Finland and specialty coffee.

My biggest passion is music. I dedicate all my free time to my band called
"Poor Leo", inst, vk @poor_leo_band.

I'm also fond of foreign literature. I'm in love with Finland and Finnish language.

I love paper cups, I collect them from different places, I have four high towers of them :D Each cup keeps an impression of that moment/place. So it's like a paper photo - it brings the memory, so the moment is kept, not lost.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Thanks to the CS I had the best moments of my life meeting great people and discovering new places!

Movies: I'm into cosmic sci-fi movies - absolutely love to get lost in a deep atmospheric story. Also I'm a huge fan of David Lynch.

Men I Trust, Mac DeMarco, lofi chill beats, Kurt Vile, God is an Astronaut, Mogwai, Ariel Pink, Pixies

Literature: Kobo Abe, Hermann Hesse
