🖖 I'm Misha. Nice to meet you, my friend.

👨🏻‍💻 Being a true humanitarian down to the crunch of tracts, I got into IT by accident, enrolling in Computer Science at the University down the street from my apartment. Started deep dive from sysadmin topics, today I work as a Site Reliability Engineer: CI/CD pipelines, monitoring, incidents, internal toolkit, that sort of thing.

📝 Apart from the positive experience of having a 9-to-5 job, I let my emotional subpersonalities express themselves in the art of writing. I have a Telegram channel where I write texts – https://t.me/paranoidmate

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I strongly believe in:

– Shared Economy – I give you a free accommodation, I hope you'll give back for someone once
– Shared Experiences – The best stories written by the fortune
– Shared Learning – Both of us can learn something from each other

Interests

For travelling, I maintain a NomadMania account where I can see regions I haven't been yet: it motivates me to travel to non-obvious places trying to find a piece of beauty in every spot of our lovely, but complicated world. Warm welcome to everyone

Taking the rest, I love travelling, cycling on my favorite fixed bike, discovering anthropology/history/politics, football, films/music/books, concerts/moshpits.

Music, Movies, and Books

They keep changing very rapidly, so instead of mentioning my favorites directly, I'd rather leave the link to my catalogs where I diligently keep ratings of things that I've watched, read or listened:

Goodreads for books – https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/108154325-misha-chinkov
IMDb for movies – https://www.imdb.com/user/ur117570764/ratings
BestEverAlbums for music albums – https://www.besteveralbums.com/phpBB2/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=55258

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Conquering FOMO feelings

Teach, Learn, Share

What I want to learn from this world nails down to two things: "patience" and "humility"

What I Can Share with Hosts

I think we could have a lovely conversation with you about:

* Tech Industry
* Psychology and psychotherapy
* Emigration and Immigration
* Travelling experience
* Politics/history in the context of a particular region or country
* Football
