Currently doing my master's in Bioinformatics and Machine learning at Aalto University, Finland.

Tech-savvy travel enthusiast with a good sense of humor. Traveling the world, seeking new experiences, and building communities around me.
With my brain into the startup world, and heart into improvisation theatre.

On daily basis, I'm mostly a programmer with a big passion towards team management and group development. I've been an active member of various NGOs and youth organizations dealing with non-formal youth education.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I believe that the true beauty of a country and culture lays within the people.

As a host, I try to show the best of my country and give some unique experiences to people willing to explore and go out of their comfort zones. Everything from local bars and restaurants to hikes, rope jumping events and nights rides with kayaks.

As a traveler, I'm extremely respectable, tidy, and adaptable. I'm trying to discover unique experiences, always willing to join all adventures.

兴趣

I would say that I'm into everything that's close to nature. I like various outdoor sports - bouldering, rock climbing, mountain biking, hiking, mountaineering, kayaking, swimming.
I'm trying to master all the skills that would benefit me in wild-life survival situations.

I'm into music and arts as well. Used to play guitar in a band back in the day and still am enjoying it from time to time. Diverse crafts, especially something fine and delicate such as jewelry crafts (that's my first education, haha) and paper cut-outs (stencil art) calms me a lot.
