About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Get outside the bubble and practice my shitty hebrew.

ABOUT ME

Open-minded, easy-going, communicative. I work as a Software Engineer in Moscow. I'm a team lead developing knowledge base for Russian search engine (and I have no idea what this mumbo-jumbo means).
I'll be happy to share a drink with you (or join you in any other activities that you prefer).

PHILOSOPHY

Trying to find my place in the world. I don't think that my life has any meaning except for the meaning that I put into it. And I just try to find my passion and not get bored.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people and see the world like the locals see it.

Interests

Computer science, lindy hop, movies, traveling, snowboarding, politics, traveling (although I suck at many of mentioned activities), poker (no limit holdem)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've once seen a cocomouse fly.
I have an open case in European Court vs Russia.
I've chatted with two US dollar billionaires for two full hours.
I've worked at Google and Microsoft (and turned down Facebook and Whatsapp).

Teach, Learn, Share

I'll be happy to share with you the little I know about Machine Learning, Computer Science, life in Russia and a bit more. I can also try to teach you dancing lindy hop (but I'm not quite good at that)
