Self-publishing author living and working in Berlin.

Bilingual author, writing in Russian and English. Published my first book in 2022, and writing has been a big part of my life ever since. From non-fiction essays to novels about life in modern society, from art performances to charity events.

So I wrote a book about Couchsurfing

I wrote the whole book about CouchSurfing being a part of my life during the last 7 years (2015-2022).

A bit of my story here: M26, living in Berlin since 4 years, originally from Russia. Got into CouchSurfing when I was in the States via Work&Travel and kept surfing&hosting thereafter until recently. Got into writing as a hobby 3 years ago, mostly working on short stories. The main idea was to do Read more of this blog post »

Пусть льет by Paul Bowles
"Неонуарный Камю у нас дома. Неожиданно круто."
Misha Chinkov and 22 other people liked Peter's status update
Peter
Peter is on page 151 of 1279 of Die Brüder Karamasow: Ende zweites Buch. Schon hier steht die zentrale Aussage des Buches und seines Autors: Ohne Glaube (an die Unsterblichkeit des Seele) gibt es keine Tugend, ist alles erlaubt (bis hin zum Mord). Iwan wird als Atheist geoutet und der alte Karamasow macht sich endgültig unmöglich. Fremdschämen hoch drei. Trotzdem entsendet der Starez Sossima Alexej aus dem Kloster zu seiner Familie.
