ABOUT ME

Born and raised in Moscow while traveling a lot.
My career started with an article to snowboard magazine and then - pictures and films joined.
Since then I've worked on many interesting projects around the world (music videos, fashion, sport, docu, shorts, commercials).
This year I graduated from Rodchenko art school.
(INTP in 16personalities and manifesting generator in human design).
Few years ago become vegetarian.
Started to make hip-hop performances again.

I am quite open to have new experiences in this life, to meet people, to share ideas and collaborate. My favorite activities are: dancing, freestyling, filming, performing, writing, walking , watching movies, reading, surfing, snowboarding, improvising. I love hip-hop and jazz, I like to mix old school with new school in all the ways. You can check some of my films and pictures at www.isakin.in, and my life flow at https://www.instagram.com/ruppaa
Cheers!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's always great to meet local people, to understand what is life for them. The best way to know someone is to see his house - so couch surfing gives a great opportunity to see how people really live.
Creative adult is a child who survive.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had some good couch surfing experiences mostly in USA (Cali and NY) and some in France - met a lot of nice people, while some weirdos too... With some guys we became real friends and met many times after, we are still in touch. Some people also stayed in my place in Moscow and it was really inspiring.

I guess I learn from everyone I meet and take it as a blessing.

Interests

I'm pretty brave and open. Looking to be useful. I'm an introvert that could be an extravert sometimes. Art of living.

I jumped through the huge tree on a snowboard.
