About Me

I'm a PhD student at NTNU, Norway, born and raised in the Far East Russia, educated in the middle of Siberia, sculpted by the entire world. I play saxophone, djembe and bongo. I love music and people, do not like politics and politicians. Talk to me if you want to learn how techno was born thousands of years ago and what it feels like to grow in the outskirts of Mother Russia.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To break down the artificial boundaries over-imposed by short-sighted politicians. To meet people as they are, but not as they are presented in the media. To have fun, contemplate beauty and share the passion.
