About Me

I'm just a good man :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Well, I have registered here long ago, but yet I didn't have an opportunity to test the service. Still, my friends did and all of them claimed it to be awesome , so I 've decided to try it myself. I think that there is no better way to experience the vibrance of the city you than to spend time with the locals, who really feel and understand the place they live in and can show you some unusual and off-the-track places, as well as tell you a lot of things you won't find in tourist guidebooks.

One more reason is that I do want to share my knowledge, to introduce Ukrainian culture to you, as there are a lot of stuff going on in my country and sometimes the stereotypes may create a wrong image of our people. And of course, it's real fun to meet fellow travelers to share stories and hang out together. There is nothing better than an exciting conversation!

Interests

My interests are constantly changing, but some of them follow me throughout my life.
I started drawing, when I was a kid, that is why I entered art school. There I began woodcarving, which finally led me to architecture that is truly my passion:)

I'm also interested in music. I play panpipe and now I'm struggling to learn to play a guitar:D

I also enjoy sports, especially extreme ones: riding on a longboard, cycling and others. I have always dreamed of getting a motocycle someday.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite music is quite a vague notion. But I do enjoy nice female vocal:)
Still, my playlist looks like: http://www.lastfm.ru/user/Mr_Bruin

I like movies and shows that make me laugh or reflect and I often watch comedies, such as How I ment your mother, or some fantasy and utopian movies.

I like fiction books, among my favourites are R. Bradbury, O. Huxley, R. Bach, J. Selinger and others.
