IMPORTANT!!!
Currently I'm passing my last exam and leaving to ride the bike along the coast, after I immediately fly to Ukraine so I can no longer host in Torino.

ABOUT ME

When social - usually cheerful easy-going guy, who adores nature, spending time outdoors, hiking, skiing, snowboarding, in future parachuting, and BIKING. I ride my bike since the time I was six, and now I don't put off my bike even in winter :D (you can check out the photos)

I adore interesting people and learning about other's experiences, as well as sharing my ones. Open to any cultures, races, genders :)

Some people write about MISSION:

To study hard, to work hard, to travel hard, to love as much as possible and make this world a better place!

P.S.: if you're a man and my request seems to be too warm and admirable, it's just the way I'm fond of some amazing people. I'm not a gay, never was and never thought about) just to say

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Recently I realized that I was travelling in totally wrong way.
Now I know that the best experience in travel is the people you meet, adventures you experience and quitting your comfort zone.
When travelling somewhere, I want to get in touch with local people in order to realize why they love the place (village, city, country) they live in, to walk in shoes of those, who appreciate this. It's the most important in travel as for me :)

Interests

First, I guess, people. I am always fascinated with people who are living their lives to make this world happier.

Second, work. Yup, I'm of those crazy people who may like to work, to do smth real and to see, that results of your work are useful for others.

Then sports and travels, usually to somewhere with beatiful nature, all kind of activities that can clear your mind when you're tired.

Usually I'm cycling (in city, on roads, in mountains), skiing, snowboarding, roller skating, windsurfing, hiking, trekking, and hopefully, will try surfing and parachuting soon.

And of course, music and art festivals. I play guitar in band (mainly groovy music), hopefully, once we'll step on a big stage and blow up the crowd.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: first I used to listen to a lot of loud rock and metal music. But then when I started playing guitar I realized that the world is full of amazing music, the most important is how much work and passion is involved, so I appreciate many styles.
But mainly this music is smth like: Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Guthrie Govan, Joe Satriani, Led Zeppelin, Limp Bizkit, Stone Sour and blablabla, this list is endless :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Not one and not that amazing, but:

I was beaten by riot police while defending the Ukrainian revolution in 2013

Did the rope jumping. did hot air balooning

Jumped on a BMX while being on a rooftop of 12-storey building

Once did a ride in a toilet of Norvegian intercity train because didn't manage to buy ticket and obviously 600 eur fine is too high :))

And I loved, loved a lot

But it's still nothing, I hope that I have some life ahead to do the big things

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you how to hop on pavements with your bicycle, how to play rock'n'roll and blues on guitar, how to cook Ukrainian national dishes, how to notice beatiful things in sometimes ugly world, and, guess, much more other things.
We'll see :)
