About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Changing.

ABOUT ME

Well, the question "what do I want to do when I grow up" is still open to me. I try to experience new things, meet new people, share ideas and opinions. Inspire and get inspired. Share what I know and learn something new.

If more practically, currently I work as User Experience designer and analyst - trying to make interfaces of software more friendly to people. Think of the moment you were struggling with the site: "shit, how can I remove the post" or "where is the price", that's what I try to diminish).
At the free time I have fun, hang out with friends and travel. :)

PHILOSOPHY

Keep changing. Stay open, live with open eyes and not just look but see.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In St Petersburg I am open to hang out with surfers, show not only main sites, but cozy cafes, creative spaces, and the places where you can drink "boyarsky" shots for 100rub and have fun all the nigh long hopping from bar to bar.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had some experience surfing with my friends in Netherlands, Germany, Finland and Turkey.
Unfortunately, I can't host as I live in a tiny studio flat. But we spent a lot of cool days hanging out with surfers staying at my friends' places.
