Railway entrepreneur from Yekaterinburg who turned business trips into cultural adventures. Born in Kazakhstan steppes, built my company in the Urals, but discovered my passion for connecting cultures worldwide.

My story: What started as infrastructure deals in Seoul became 2-week immersion in Korean culture. Now I believe the best business happens over shared meals with future friends.

Why Yekaterinburg rocks: We're the secret heart of Russia where Europe meets Asia, Soviet history meets innovation, and locals actually smile in -35°C weather!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Hotels give you a bed, CS gives you life stories. After being welcomed from Seoul to Buenos Aires, I learned that magic happens in 3 AM tea conversations when strangers become family.

My mission: Show travelers the real Russia beyond stereotypes. You'll discover that Russians know how to live life, Yekaterinburg is more than industry, and Siberian hospitality is legendary.

Para hispanohablantes: Quiero mostrarles la Rusia auténtica - preparense para descubrir que los rusos sabemos vivir la vida!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Closed a major infrastructure deal while exploring Korea - what was supposed to be 3 business days turned into 2-week cultural immersion. Learned that Korean hospitality rivals Russian warmth, Seoul metro beats Moscow's, and business success comes from genuine human curiosity.

The lesson: Sometimes the scariest decisions lead to the most incredible experiences.
