Hey! My name is Vadim. I’m a friendly, hospitable, and courteous guy who gets along with pretty much everyone. I work as a web developer, but I’m always up for chatting about all kinds of topics — from everyday stuff to deeper conversations. I’ve got a dark sense of humor and a love for sarcastic jokes, so if something I say sounds weird, there’s a good chance it was just a joke. 😉

I love traveling, meeting new people, and getting a real feel for places through local culture and conversations. I respect personal space but enjoy meaningful connections — whether it’s sharing stories, exploring the city together, or just having a chill evening talking about life, the universe, and everything in between.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

- Just to make my life more interesting and fun through new experiences and meeting new people
- It helps develop my communications skills
- It gives me a lot of new information about the world and different people
- It helps me fight with my laziness because I like to share verified and comprehensive information and this motivates me to read more and analyze information from different sources for fact checking
- It‘s the best way to meet local people and communicate with them

Interests

I’m really into computer games — they’ve been a big part of my life ever since I was a kid. If you play too, definitely let me know! I’d love to hear what you’re into. And if you play Heroes of the Storm (yep, I’m one of the few still loyal to it!), drop your Battlenet tag and let’s team up for a game or two.

I also have a soft spot for anything tech-related — new gadgets, smart devices, robots, and all that geeky IT stuff. I love trying out new things, testing apps or gear, and staying updated on what’s happening in the tech world.

Outside the screen, I genuinely enjoy just walking around the city with no clear plan — soaking in the atmosphere, stumbling upon random places, and of course, hunting down delicious food. Whether it’s a cozy café or a street food stand, I’m always happy to try something new (and probably take a picture of it).
