ABOUT ME

I'm Ukrainian, currently working in non-profit sector in Kyiv. Until December 2017 was working for more than 2 years in energy sustainability in Budapest, and it makes me feel a bit like a local there:)
I have a passion for traveling and getting to know new people and new cultures. I really enjoy noticing the peculiarities of people from different places, and that is why I enjoy CS a lot, as it let's to get a chance to come across people you don't usually meet in your daily life.

Apart from my everyday working routine, I have numerous hobbies, such as playing drums, photography, etc. I am an avid fan of hiking, and do it every time I have a chance.
