A Ukrainian living in Finland.

I used to work as a software testing engineer, but now I focus on improving my artistic skills, particularly in drawing and watercolor painting.

I like hiking, camping and going to the mountains. What could be better than waking up in the morning, getting of your tent and seeing the impressive view of the nature around you? (Of course, not minding all those weird sounds you heard the previous night. And insects, yeah, I hate those little bastards). Spending time outdoors is just the best.

I used to sing in a post-rock band, but had to give it up, so now I sing only in karaoke B-)

I also love video games, especially action/RPG's (however, DOOM and HOTS are also in my favorites list).

Lately I've been also interested in reading books on psychology.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I can't host nowadays but I'm always happy to meet new people. So if you are in Oulu and you would like to hang out, don't hesitate to contact me.
