About Me

Graduated philosopher from Kiev.

Currently I'm working as a video researcher for Youtube channel. I find all needed visual content and create story in right order. Thanks to this I know a lot about all kinds of pop culture celebrities — from Tom Hanks to Rihanna. But my real passion is arthouse and independent films and directors. That's why when I have a moment - I watch retrospectives of Zanussi or Jarmusch, visit film festivals or read books about aesthetic of films.

In free time I like to make photos or to do volunteer work on social projects.

I like to travel and usually use hitchhiking as a method of travelling. Not because it is cheap (which it is) but because you can meet a lot of interesting people in such journeys. I think it can be the best way to know different culture and find out places or traditions. And stories which you can't hear if you use plane or bus.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to hitchhike, because it helps to meet interesting people, and find out new about country you're visiting - and that's also why I like to use couchsurfing. It's the way of finding out new about different culture and place where you can find friends in every city in the world
