Hey there! I'm a positive and very open-minded person interested in pretty much everything this life offers, though my main free-time activities are drawing, singing, reading books and meditating. I work as a software engineer, love having a good conversation and learning more about other cultures. I don't smoke and I drink alcohol on occasions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The whole concept of Couchsurfing is truly awesome because it offers the ability to travel the world in a brand new and exciting way while meeting new people, sharing your stories with them and listening to theirs!

— "The Witcher" series, Andrzej Sapkowski

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once I wanted to make a cool gift, so I translated a comic book from English into Russian and then got it printed in a typography.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can tell you a lot about Russian, Russian people, and our culture. I can share my experience with mindfulness and meditation. I can also tell you a lot about IT and programming (C/C++, Java, and a bit of C# if anyone's interested :D) and give some advice on drawing and singing.
