Hey, I'm Nick - a total tabletop and video game geek or nerd, whatever. I love technology, geek culture (movies, series, etc) and I'd love to become a digital nomad and see the world. I work as an outsource web developer, mostly with Wordpress but oh well, nevermind. So it gives me an opportunity to work from any place all over the world. Maybe even from YOUR place, huh?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As I said in my description - I'd love to become a TRUE digital nomad and visit all the cool places all over the world. Well, to my mind 50% of culture is people and couchsurfing is maybe the best solution to find new friends and learn more about any country.

Interests

Oh well. I played bass guitar in a band-ish thing for a bit, really a bit, like 2 months? Yeah, about that. I've been playing acoustic and electric guitar for a couple of years now but I'm so bad in it. In love with the latest Netflix series (Marvel ones, OA, Love, Master of None...), uhh that's too much extra stuff here. Just imagine Sheldon Cooper who's a pleasant guy (and, unfortunately, not as smart) - that's me.

Music, Movies, and Books

My tastes always change, for now my favorite music is Russian post-punk and new Russian wave, google it - the bands are Sonic Death, Ploho, Buerak, Lemonday, SBP4 (The Biggest Prime Number or Самое большое простое число), also I pretty much like experimental music like Death Grips - absolutely breathtaking hip-hop. All-time classics like the Prodigy, Nirvana, Black Sabbath, etc etc etc.
Movies are my biggest passion, I think. Cubric, Tarantino, Edgar Wright, George Lucas, David Lynch are my most favorite. I think I know Pulp Fiction by heart. Also love series like Parks and Recreation, Friends, Scrubs, Master of None (I've said it before, right?).
What about books - science fiction & detectives. Asimov, Sheckley, Zelazny, Agatha Christie, Arthur Conan-Doyle, etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I fought for puppies. One huge drunk guy tried to harm them, I interrupted him with words, saying like WTF, man? He punched me and I beat the shit out of him. Well, you remember I'm nerd-ish, right? So that's what I'm proud of.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Russian, Ukrainian, some basic web development stuff, algorithms, some basic guitar.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can tell a lot about Ukraine, bring some postcards or coins, I can cook a bit, maybe even Ukrainian national food (both vegan and non-vegan). I can also fix your PC or _try_ to fix anything else. Trust me, I'm an engineer.
