This is old, I'll update it soon xD
----

I took a leap of faith and went to China hoping for an adventure. I definitely got what I bargained for and then some. I faced some serious adversity, but at the moment it seems like I've found some semblance of balance and started enjoying my new life here.

Some of my values are honesty and directness. I often speak my mind and I especially appreciate people who do the same. No deep relationship or friendship is possible unless people are willing to reveal and share some of their innermost thoughts and feelings. I'm probably the least judgemental person you will ever meet and I never repeat what's said to me in confidence, so opening up to me is safe. I promise ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Went on a hike in the mountains near Shenzhen with some 20 people, we lost our way, somehow made it through the jungle without any sort of path, got caught by nightfall, kept walking with flashlights until eventually one girl just refused to keep walking and demanded the rescue force be summoned. To my surprise it worked, we were found initially by a drone, then 2 hours later the police came with water and food and escorted us safely down. Next day we were in the local news! #wordscantdescribe

Teach, Learn, Share

I am eager to learn from everyone around me, and we can learn the most from people who are different from us. So, not to sound cliche, but I think I'm legitimately open minded and curious about multiple perspectives. Of course, I have some opinions of my own - strong opinions loosely held. I used to think I knew all there was to know about the world, but over time I realized there's still a whole lot to discover.

I very much enjoy discussing things, and hopefully something will come up in conversation that I'll be able to share my knowledge or experience about.

What I Can Share with Hosts

"Oleg is not your typical Slav, probably most importantly, because he smiles, like ALL THE TIME. Also: best English I’ve heard any Ukrainian (or Russian) speak." -Thijs Mathyssen

"Besides this, he is very interesting to talk to and although we could not really agree on everything, we share a certain perspective on the world we live in." -Richard Dodds

"He is very well-spoken and has a unique perspective on the world." -Sean Kelly

"Oleg is a guy that always has something interesting to say. He kept the conversation flowing and provided much food for thought." -Aaron Robinson

"Oleg is a sharp, critical thinker and a careful listener which lead us to sharing a variety of interesting discussions." -Mark Fisk

"His english skill was amazing. Sometimes, I was very difficult to follow what he said." -Yong Jun Kim

"What Oleg wrote on his profile has actually done a great job describing himself. His smartness and curiosity help him absorb new knowledge like a sponge! I don't think it's easy to find another 22-years-old young man who has the same intellectual level as he does. We had some interesting conversations nearly about everything and that was really enjoyable." -Chin Wang Ho

"Oleg is a wise guy, able to keep your attention for hours, and I like how he is a self-made guy. If you really want to have a great time, and enjoy every kind of discussion - don't hesitate, Oleg is the man =)" -Modesto Javier

"He did everything to make us feel comfortable and I really appreciate it." -Sonia Bala

"Interesting guy that really is as cool and smart as he says =^)" -Ed Yanchuk
