ABOUT ME

Currently I am on the road digesting my education and keep on learning -- Arabic, machine learning and brain -- but most of all, people and places.

I can play one simple tune on an accordion for hours, naturally, so beware!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In 2007/08, I was quite active meeting and hosting in St. Petersburg. Then two amazing summer trips followed in western ukraine and no less western balkans. They happened just and only because of cs - while meeting and surfing in kiev, irpen, lviv, ivano-frnkivsk, moscow, helsinki, stockholm, belgrade, novi sad, zelenkovac, sarajevo, uzice, kragujevac, the hague
these experiences were/are really crucial for me, far more than just nice time spending: people were/are great, more than great: inspiring, astounding, completely different, on the high grade of "alive-ness". i know i learnt a lot and hope i gave something as well
