About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Traveling is the way of life
Dear travelers! I'm in the city to 3.08, then will be out for about a month.

ABOUT ME

It`s hard to tell you about myself because each person is a whole world. So I like to discover new worlds from other countries and travel by myself, trying to find the meaning of life in all that surrounds us. You can see my creation in costume photography - www.miraclelegends.net

PHILOSOPHY

If you can feel a connection with the World the World with connect with you and help.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If I can't host you, I can quide you through city of Tomsk and around in different destinations. As a quide I can show you old traditional places, reminds of different culture, art-places, food specialities, ruins, nature wonders and some ways of spending free time in Siberia (like mushroom hunting or skiing). If we will synchronize our time-table you can have quided tour through the city, so write me please in advance.

P.S. Последнее время от соотечественников приходят письма в стиле "Нужна только ночевка" - извините, каучсерфинг не совсем про это. Если вам неинтересно общаться то и мне - тоже.
