ABOUT ME
I'm an Entrepreneur - In 2017 I launched my Web Design / Digital Marketing agency in the sunny shores of Auckland, New Zealand.
It's been a bumpy ride; I've learned a lot and I've grown immensely during the last 4 years. Perhaps you are interested in starting a business of your own one day? I'd love to connect and share my experiences with you.
I am half-German and half-Russian, and I speak both languages fluently. Having lived in both countries, I have a unique perspective on the world and I am very fortunate to be able to use my language skills in my work. Are you curious about these cultures? I would love to share with you and learn more about yours.
I am always open to meeting genuine and friendly people and I'm curious to learn as much as I can about the world.
Couchsurfing is what transforms "places" into "homes". I am so grateful for the connections I've made here.
My hobbies:
🎸Guitar, Bass, Keys
🎹 Producing (psytrance)
🖌 Art, Drawing
🎥 Drone Photography
🤖 Exploring new Tech
📚 Books, Non-fiction, Productiviy, Self-Development, Philosophy, Sci-Fi
🌎 Travelling...but I think it's safe to say everyone on this app does 😅
Want to stay on my couch? Add the word "syncronicity" to your request, so I know you've read my profile ;)
