My name is Vitaliy and I'm from Lviv, Ukraine. I'm software engineer and now doing some of my own projects. I can describe myself as curious, easy-going, flexible, tolerant, open-minded person. I love being around people but I am comfortable with silence.

I like to talk about nowadays, future, I'm always eager to hear your opinion about the world we live in, what's wrong with it and how we can improve it.

I try to stay optimistic in all situations and always to keep positive thinking. Also, reliabilty and honesty are very important to me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting people from all over the world, make friends and share/learn the experiences of life and travels and I think CS is the best way to do this. Because every person you meet has the ability to teach you smth and potentiality to increase you as a person and I'm sure it works in both ways.

And it's always interesting to discuss cultural differences with local people and understand thier point of view, learn more about their country, language, history.
