About Me

ABOUT ME
A creator of Awesome Kyiv - I am doing private tours in Kyiv and blogging about my city.
I love architecture, urbanistic, urban exploring, good alcohol and jazz. Constantly exploring Kyiv, showing its alternative sides to tourists, and trying to prove that Kyiv is so much more than a city of golden domes.

Appreciate smart people, good sarcasm and irony

PHILOSOPHY

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover.

---Mark Twain---
