ABOUT ME

I speak English and Russian. I'm always glad to meet new people and make new friends. I'm originally from Odessa, Ukraine but now I live in Los Angeles, CA.
Outgoing and friendly, I try to get along with everyone.
I got married in Feb of 2016 to an amazing girl that I met on my Euro trip in 2015 :D it's an amazing story that I love to tell if anyone asks.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why is anyone on couchsurfing?
I'm here to meet new people and make new friends. Have a couple pints/great meals along the way... isn't that what life is all about?

Interests

I love trying new food and drinks. I like to do a bit of bartending as a hobby. I love to BBQ and am pretty handy in the kitchen.
I don't smoke, but I don't have a problem with it. I do drink socially :)
