Hello, folks! My life can easily be divided into two major aspects: hardware and software development (FPGA , microcontrollers, custom electronics and system programming) and bike touring. I cannot really imaging myself without these two things. As a electronics engineer I am a lucky member of our development team and able to take a part at full cycle creating process of a custom hardware: just from an idea to working device. And this is very interesting and and sometimes hard way, I might say. As a bicycle tourists my friends and I every summer make a wonderful journeys around very beautiful countries: Iceland, Switzerland, Finland and, of course, Mother Russia (here I must supply the image of Soviet Bear from Reddit =) ).
Besides these two hobbies (yes, my hobby is my work, yeah!) I have rather usual list of interest: active lifestyle (roller skates, swimming, running and rock climbing), music (electro house, folk, hard rock, power metal) and tea ceremony. Also, I am interested in knifes a little (I have benchmade Adamas as a working knife).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a way to get out from my comfort zone (new countries, new people) and make new friends and connections, learn something new. And it is very useful to get some other point of view about different topics through friendly discussion and arguments. And, of course, It is a good way to improve my awful english! =)
