I was born in Ukraine in 1989 and moved to Germany in 1992 at the age of 3 along with my family. I'm self-employed and working online, hence geographically independent. Though I welcome the company that couchsurfing provides, I have no trouble travelling alone and exploring cities on my lonesome, if you don't have time. I'm very low maintenance in that respect.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Music, Movies, and Books
Movies: Inception, American Beauty, Fight Club, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, In Bruges ... just to name a few off the top of my head. Way too many favorites ; Music: The National, Interpol, Radiohead, System of a Down, Mozart, Phillip Glass ...there's barely a genre I do not like. (I'm looking at you, Raggae.) Books: To name a few favorites: 1984, The Road, The Unbearable Lightness of Being
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Snorkeled among sharks, slepts in indigenous huts in Lesotho, travelled as a homeless person with a hammock for weeks....
My Interests
Way too many - Psychology, sociology, geography, astronomy and any other kind of science that can catch my attention. Travel has occupied the better part of my last 12 months, and I intend to keep it that way in the coming year. Other than that: All things tech-related, books, music (lots of it!), sports (ditto), travel.
