► Born and raised in Kiev, Ukraine. Madly in love with this city, where still coexists european spirit and imprint of socialist past.

► By education - an international economist. By vocation - a writer :) Worked in consulting, marketing and public relations agencies as a social media marketing specialist, analyst and copywriter.

► A year ago, there was a complete reassessment of values. Freestyle backpackers and travelers, which I had previously considered weird guys become an example for me of how I should live in the near future and what should I do to achieve my goals. I was falling asleep and waking up with the thought that previously I was doing useless things. You can make money, but you can't recover time. So I decided that until I don't see at least a small part of this great world, I will not continue to live the same way. Now I'm retired to put on the backpack and find my way.

► I'm a man of varied attainments, but trying to follow certain principles:
- be honest with others and yourself;
- talk less/do more;
- do NOT judge people until you understand them.

With all of this, I'm not that kind of person who thinks all the time about the meaning of life and lofty matters in a philosophical manner or fanatically believe in any religion and teachings.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

As a wandering writer I'm collecting all kinds of life stories!
My goal is to find people who can share with me their lives: way of thinking, the culture of their countries & nations and share local secrets of course ;)

In return I will be able to share with them what I know about Ukraine and the world in general. We can discuss almost everything: from music preferences to history and sports. The opinion of each person is unique and interesting to me. Even if it is negative, it still represents value.

So one of the main goals is to meet as many characters as possible to finally form my personal worldview and capture what I saw for everyone who will read my publications.
