About Me

I am an easy-going, liberal and open minded person.

Living my life under the flying missiles and drones in a capital of the country that is in war with ruzzian motherfuckers. I love my life so much. Now I understand it even more.

I like DIY (Do It Yourself) and conceptual underground stuff. But nothing is as good, as nature is! Any club or pub or any other place can’t ever be as good, as that breathtaking nature, that surrounds us everywhere! I can find smth good in almost everything and a small detail can make me really happy! And of course, I really appreciate kind, good people, I can have meaningful conversations with. Also, I prefer people, who do smth interesting, not just work-family-work way of life. I am really a dreamer and I want to do so much stuff more in my life and I want to meet a lot of good people! I am the kind of person, who can not sit for a long time in the same place. I need to develop all the time!

Music, Movies, and Books

I used to play in some bands on guitar and bass. We played hardcore most of all. Now I am more into experimental stuff and DJing. But as for listening now I like experimental stuff like noise, ambient, breakbit, jazz, different underground pop, shoegaze, grange, different varieties of techno, hip-hop, soul, hardcore and all other genres that you can imagine . All genres are good for a suitable mood.

My favourite book is Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, by Jonathan Safran Foer and 1984 by Orwell

I like films, that make me think a lot or even cry. Or really stupid comedies. Or films about traveling and adventures. Or festival movies. Usually, I don't watch series.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bungee jumping from the highest bridge in Ukraine
Hiking the volcano during the eruption
Cofounding a startup
Hitchhiking all over Ukraine
Hitchhiking over Europe for almost 2 months
Becoming a happy man after burnout and depression
