About Me

I always wanted to become a filmmaker or a writer, but it seems like I'm gonna be a programmist

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just like couches very much

Interests

I like nature, because since early childhood my father always took me to the woods to pick berries and mushrooms and to do some fishing, so the woods became my friends.
I liked reading novels, I've read a lot of them, but after I took a big break it seemed like I'm beginning to feel more happier. I'll read again when I'm ready.
If not Kerouac I wouldn't have been inspired to try hitchhiking and "bum travelling")
I like playing music, especially jamming.
