A curious worldly being exploring the worlds of curious people.

When one zooms sufficiently far out from their accustomed view point and sets all the variables truly free, there are only a few ways left to them after as giant a realization: reading more books (integrating instead of following) and meeting more people (sourcing inspiration instead of relying on).

"try" dominates "pass"

I've been switching places a lot recently: coming from the small country of Belarus moved to Russia for studies, been an intern in the bay area for two years and now am hunting other promising regions of the world for new people.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I like sharing stories with people and exploring the world through their lens.

How can one create anything of value without experiencing what this world already has to offer?
