I like making tea for people and listening to their stories. My personal story started in Russia, switched to Ohio, USA for a PhD program in photochemistry, and finally landed in Florida, where I found a job in IT, but most importantly, the Zen center, where I serve tea on some Wednesdays after meditation and listening to stories.
The desire to connect and collaborate is strong in me, so I created the ZenToBe retreat house, where I invite people from different practices to host workshops, drink tea, and inspire each other.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

I’m looking for collaboration with masters. I have space for a small group retreat or workshop.
Buddhists are always welcome in my house too.
