Smth wrong with my age, I'm actually 27.

Really chill open-minded guy, would be up for any kind experience as long as it seems cool!
Was born and raised in Russia (lived in Voronezh and Moscow), then moved to Canada when I was 19. So my mentality is stuck somewhere in between: I preserved a bit of Russian randomness and craziness, but became just as polite as a Canadian.

Trying to balance the left and right sides of the brain by performing technical and doing artsy projects on the side. I really like landscape and night photography, especially taking photos of the stars and dancing to funk music.

Oh, and originally I was meant to be a rocket scientist with the full diploma title being "A specialist in liquid-fuel rocket engines", but things worked out in a different way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This is my way to give random acts of kindness, to meet great people, and to get find a shelter off course. By giving each other a place to stay we diminish unnecessary circulation of money , "create less entropy", and ultimately delay the heat death of the universe :D just kidding.
