Ukrainian free soul living in sunny Barcelona☀️

Honestly, I have changed what I do and what I identify myself with so much that I don‘t really know what I am. Been asking myself this for a while…

After taking advantage of Covid’s gift of free time and boredom, I became a self-taught data scientist👨‍💻, early-mornings person🌅 (2 years ago, this would have been a pure nightmare for me) and a yoga addict🧘🏾‍♂️

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Staying in a five star hotel is not traveling for me. Traveling means discovering, outside of your comfort zone. Discovering the place, meeting local people, getting familiar with the local culture. It is to find something you didn't expect to find. To visit a café where locals escape tourists. To see things the way they really are. Fortunately, couchsurfing can help you to do all those things!

Interests

I love yoga, started it in 2020, and now became a real addict! I‘m also a geek regarding technology (especially artificial intelligence) and sustainability! For a while I’ve been recording a podcast about it (https://dataforfuture.org) with a friend. Trying my best to live with lowest impact possible on our environment and people around the globe! Went vegan in 2020, so one of my interests had to become cooking to survive.😄

Apart from that, I love muay thai and outside sports like beach volleyball! And I play guitar and sing, my favorite is singing harmonies with multiple voices!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Built a vocal booth with bare hands and recorded a music album in my room (https://spoti.fi/2KmaCED)

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach you how to offer a beer in at least 6 languages
...or teach you how to play some basic things on guitar (but please no Smoke on the Water from Deep Purple)
...or show you how to cook Borshch (tasty ukrainian soup)
...or share my philosophy of life with you
...if you don't want anything of that i will at least share a cookie :)
