I founded a private language school in Samarkand helping people to speak English and prepare them for entrance exams to universities and getting IELTS/TOEFL certificates.
3 months ago (December 2023) I decided to take a break from work and start traveling in Turkey, Saudi Arabia(mainly for Umrah), Georgia and it lasted for 6 months - the longest I've ever traveled.
I've hosted a great number of travellers from around the world. Some I did get along, some made friends with.
Why am I on couchsurfing? To share knowledge, to learn, connect on a deep level, inspire and get inspired.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I've hosted some people that left an indelible print in my life. I look for those moments - landmarks, guidelines, fortuitous encounters..

兴趣

I love to read about Islam and Ulama and their work from Golden Ages of Islam, lead an active lifestyle, running, cardio workout, dancing, swimming, hiking, trekking, capoeira, meditation, fasting
To decipher the meaning of life through deep human conversations and truly connecting with others on a profound level is what makes me tick.
