I'm a software developer by profession and a curious person by nature. I spend a lot of time exploring artificial intelligence, but I promise I can talk about things that don't involve computers. :)
I enjoy good books, history, science, travelling, and occasionally disappearing down a rabbit hole of completely useless but fascinating facts.
I love conversations that start with something ordinary and somehow end up discussing the universe, human nature, or whether we're all living in a simulation.
I'm married, have three kids, and still manage to find time to be curious about the world. Occasionally. :)
I appreciate people with a sense of humour, an open mind, and a story or two to tell. You don't need to have the same interests as me -- sometimes the most interesting conversations happen between completely different people.
Requests
Recommend me a book that genuinely changed the way you see the world. Or just one that kept you awake until 3 a.m. :)
I'm also curious about the little things that make everyday life different around the world -- local traditions, strange habits, favourite places, or things that foreigners would never understand.
And here's a question: if you could spend one year living anywhere in the world, with no worries about money or work, where would you go and why?
Bonus points if you have a terrible joke to share.
Hobbies & Interests
Books, artificial intelligence, history, quantum physics, psychology, travelling, different cultures, martial arts, ice hockey, and asking far too many questions about how the world works.
Favorite Music
A bit of everything. My playlist has no consistent genre, mood, or apparent logic. If a song is good, it's good.
Favorite TV Shows
I do not watch them.
Favorite Books
Mostly Russian, French, British and American classics. I enjoy books that make you think, question things, or see ordinary life from a completely different angle.
Always happy to discover a great author I've somehow missed.
