I and my wife, Alina, live in Chisinau, Moldova. We got married in August 2013. We run a software programming company which we started in 2006. Since then, our business and our team of developers grew, and today we provide IT services to customers from Moldova, USA, UK, and several other countries from Europe.

Our motto: "Be the change that you want to see in the world" (Gandhi)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I and Alina like to travel, meet new people and make new friends. We plan to travel at least 2 times a year. We like to learn from different cultures, and from different people's experiences. Learning about a country becomes much easier and travelling becomes a fascinating experience when we meet great people in all the places that we go to.

Teach, Learn, Share

We are using couchsurfing for the very first time. So this is a totally new experience for us. We look forward to learning from new cultures and people that we meet on our way through life.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We speak Romanian and Russian. We know there are people interested in learning Russian, so we can definitely give you an insight in learning Russian, and you can practice your speech with us. We are also computer savvy, so we can help you figure out any computer, web or mobile issues or uncertainties that you have. We are also happy to share with you how it is to run a company, and how is society and economy in a developing country from Eastern Europe.
