Hey, I’m Taras - a Ukrainian software engineer who spends half his life traveling, half building weirdly complex decentralized systems, and somehow enjoying both. I’m easygoing, clean, curious, and I treat people the way I want to be treated. I love deep conversations, long walks through cities I’ve never seen, street food, sunsets near the ocean, and meeting people who think differently from me. I’m not the loud party type, but I love good energy, music, and the kind of nights you remember years later. I don’t need luxury - just a safe space, good company, and a little bit of human warmth.

Perché sono su Couchsurfing
Because the best part of traveling isn’t hotels - it’s people. I want to meet locals, understand their city through their eyes, exchange stories, perspectives. I’m not here just for a free bed - I’m here for human connection.
Musica, film e libri
Music: electronic, indie, deep house, Brazilian beats, and anything that sounds good near the ocean. If you have a favorite local band — I’d love to hear it.
Una cosa straordinaria che ho fatto
I left Ukraine during the war, rebuilt my life from scratch in a new country, kept my humour, and somehow turned all that chaos into motivation to explore the world. Also survived hiking in the Carpathian mountains during a storm with no cell signal - that counts too.
