ABOUT ME

Deeds not words!

Check for me on BeWelcome.
I refuse to pay to Couchsurfing team because for my opinion it goes against the core principles of hospitality and genuine cultural exchange. Demanding payment for a platform that is built on the spirit of generosity and selflessness is contradictory and undermines the true essence of connecting with people from different backgrounds. Couchsurfing should be a platform where individuals offer their homes and experiences out of goodwill, without the expectation of financial compensation. It is through these genuine acts of kindness that we can foster meaningful connections and promote a world where cultural exploration is accessible to all, regardless of their financial means.
Hey Couchsurfing team! Make money on the adverts!

I enjoy being with my loved ones, creating philosophical concepts, and exploring the process of deconstructing these creations. I dedicate a lot of my time to my work and thrive on inventing new beautiful things. Spontaneity plays a significant role in my life, bringing excitement and adventure. I appreciate the joy of expressing my creativity and embracing the unexpected moments life has to offer.
Il mediocre non mi interessa, il bello lo conosco, vado alla ricerca del sublime.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I enjoy to help people discover the world

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I like to host people and to be guest. I've been using several International and Russian-speaking hospitality websites for hosting and for travel.
Some people from that web resources became a very important part of my life.
During the 2008-2018 years I hosted about 230-240 people.

Interessi

I have a strong enthusiasm for people, constantly seeking out interesting personalities to learn from and explore new worlds. By immersing myself in their experiences, I am able to grow and expand my own knowledge and understanding. And overcome my fears!

I like to be engaged in outdoor activities such as climbing, mountaineering, freediving, scuba diving, hitchhiking, backpacking, and kitesurfing. These pursuits allow me to explore and connect with nature, pushing my physical limits.

In terms of intellectual interests, I deeply appreciate classical literature, fine arts, cinematography, theater, ballet, opera, ethnic and classical music, folk dances and costumes, art history, ethnography, history and philosophy. These subjects reflect my passion for culture, creativity, and the pursuit of knowledge.

I value uniqueness and authenticity in all aspects of life and have a strong aversion to clichés, banality, and platitudes.

Musica, film e libri

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I have come to realize that time is a consistent and relative concept, and it varies for each individual, even if we share the same biological cycle on our journey towards death.

I have poor eyesight.
When I stopped wearing glasses and started using contact lenses, it was the most tremendous change in my life.

"When I create a new piece, I always start with a prototype. My workshop is where I continually accumulate materials, components, and objects of all different kinds. I assemble, weld, bend, and shape. I need to feel the materials, to see how shapes interact with light. In this initial stage, there is no finalized object design, but rather a search for shapes and ideas. The idea of a light symphony on the relief surface guides me through my search for objects. I believe that only manual work, with its imperfections, gives a sense of living beauty, uniqueness, and authenticity to the material world of humanity."

Insegna, impara, condividi

When I have an inspiration from my hosts or guests I like to draw their portraits.

I can tell you Odessa's history and show you the city origins - the catacombs.
