I am 22 y.o. Data Scientist, currently finishing my CS masters in Estonia. Ukrainian, born and raised there, currently live in Estonia.

Up for anything (including, but not limited to): partying, philosophical discussions, political debates, 4:20, sightseeing, hiking, etc.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My main reason to be on couchsurfing is people: it's not about saving money, but about talking to locals. I like talking to people and getting to know them and the culture of the country I'm travelling to much more than going to museums or looking at statues.

Also, I do believe in building a better world based on trust and alternative social networks.

Interests

• minimalism
• economics
• philosophy
• psychology

Music, Movies, and Books

1) Music

Right now I'm in a phase with obsession with Irish music, so: Dropkick Murphys, Real McKenzies, Young Dubliners, The Paddyhats.
Also like phonk and classical rock.

2) Love series of books "The magicians" (as well as series), "Limitless" (movie & series), "Shameless" (series)
3) Among books I mostly like nonfiction: have read Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus, Boethius, also many of the books on economics/investing, as well as Nassim Nicholas Talleb.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Among the projects: I made a project on artificial life (not to be confused with AI) with artificial chemistry and self-replicating DNA's.

Some other stuff: had a couple of psychedelic trips, which was really wonderful.

Teach, Learn, Share

What I would want to learn:
1) Frankly, anything. I would love to hear about your experience or fun stories. I would love to hear about your unique values or view or life philosophy (especially if we turn out to be direct opposites)

What I can teach you:

1) Critical thinking (fake news)
2) Statistical/mathematical thinking skills in simple words
3) CBT (Cognitive behavioural therapy)
4) How does economics/government work

What I can share:
1) My view on anything about Ukraine (I know this topic is kinda hot as of 2023)

Stories and knowledge, empathetic listening, if I can bring something you want (and that airlines will allow) from Estonia.
