From the very start I should say that it is not an easy thing to speak about myself as it is hard to have a look at yourself from aside, but at the same time who knows you better than you yourself do?

My name is Dmitriy and I'm a 18-year-old. I'm a third-year student of software development and I like it. College for me was not only lessons and learning, I had a lot of friends there. I am sociable, so I have got a lot of friends. As for me, I appreciate people's honesty, kindness and intelligence. I don't like when people are rude and deceitful.

I consider myself an educated person who wants to develop oneself. So, in my opinion, travelling is the best way to do it.

Life is too short - keep discovering and enjoying!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

ABOUT MY EXPERIENCE
My first experience of hitchhiking was recently on new year's eve. I was invited to celebrate new year on a beach of the Odessa(~500 km from Kyiv). There I found a lot of very interesting people, who became my friends now and inspire me to do some crazy things. Now I have an about 15000+ km of hitchhiking experience (not only by Ukraine).

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to different kinds of music. Especially I love Ukrainian rock (Tin Sontsya, Sokyra Peruna, Komu Vnyiz), Russian rock (Branimir, Trezvyiy Zaryad, Pavel Fahrtdinov, CG Bros) and country music (Johnny Cash, Johnny Rebel, Bobby Horton), etc.

I love movies, but I don't have a lot of time for watching it. My favorite subject in movies are heists (Bad Santa, Ocean's Trilogy, Snatch) and my favorite director is Guy Ritchie.
