CURRENT MISSION
To get along with interesting people

ABOUT ME
I consider myself to be pretty calm, respectful and curious. I'm keen on languages, so in my spare time I'm usually doing research about some linguistic aspect. I like participating in a thoughtful conversation, so, if the time is right, I would like to initiate one. I also like cracking stupid jokes, so be prepared for a ton of puns.

PHILOSOPHY
"I'm letting life hit me until it gets tired. Then I'll hit back. It's a classic rope-a-dope"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why am I here?

Раз - Just to suffer? Okay, that was a lame MGS joke, moving on.
Два - Because I'm eager to meet interesting people from all around the world.
Три - I want share my thoughts and to listen to somebody else's point of view on the theme of psychology, linguistics, art, music, and movies.
Четыре - Just to make somebody smile. As easy as that.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've been to Ukraine and Russia only. I'm not much of a traveller, yet. I can talk with hosts about ukrainian cuisine and traditions, psychology, movies, music, but be prepared for me not finding the right words! I can share some thoughts on everything about my country and its history. Well, almost everything, because I don't know much about the rule of Ivan Vyhovsky.
I can sketch you, if you want. You can find some of my sketches in the photo section.
I'd also like to analyse your accent in English (if there's one). I consider accent to be such a cool feature of a person!
