About Me

Hi all! I am a travel and an extreeme lover.
I prefer all kinds of activities - cycling, walking, hiking, rafting, playing football etc.
Used to travel a lot by hithhiking (more than 250 000km), visited few hundred places in Ukraine and a lot of abroad. I like to explore the world, meet new people and find new cultures.

I was born in Mariupol city, but moved to Kyiv 8 years ago.
Before Covid I worked as a travel product manager and used to make personal guides for our partners in Kyiv, so if I have free time I can offer to my guests to walk (or cycle) in the city.
I work as data analyst now. This is remote job so I can travel as much as I want. Unfortunately during the war all mans can't leave the country.

I live with my wife Nataliia and our dog Fishka. We are cheerful and open-minded family)
Always hosting guests if not travelling.

My favourite writer is Bernard Werber. I read all his books with big pleasure.

I prefer all kinds of "klever" films, which can make me think.
