• Something to tell the world!

  Hi, I'm Alex from Ukraine. I started to realize that I realy want to meet with people from other countries, with different mentality. I want to find a good friends with whom I can be myself and who can be open to me. I think friends from different countries and with different thinking can help each other to look at different things from the other side, which is very helpful from time to time. At my profile are my fotos and answers on the different questions. If interested in communication with me and think that we will have fun - let's go!)

• Making the world a better place

  People should understand and recognize that they are the part of nature, not her creators. People should be more humane, they must respect others, help them in difficult situations, don't be separate. Society must be reformed to more progressive form, where all will have what they deserve, but there are no place for corruption, poverty, xenophobia and disrespect for people with disabilities. People should be people, not selfish machines.

• Living abroad for one year

  Oh... Hard question. I like anything new in live, meet with something new and every place will be interesting. But if i must choose, I'll pay attention on quite cold countries (i don't like hot), where will be combination of mountains, forest and sea/ocean, and this place should be quiet with breath-taking nature. So it will be Canada or Norway, maybe New Zealand, USA.

• I'm an expert at...

  Ohhh... I'm expert in football, sleeping anywhere anytime, and a little bit in social and economic geography.

• I recently learnt...

  Topic in psychology, where I've read, that Great Britain has founded the Ministry of Loneliness. Very good idea!

• Cities and countries I have visited

  I was born in Crimea and i visit almost all cities (Yepatoriia, Simferopol, Yalta, Sudak, Sevastopol, Bakhchysarai and others) and beautiful places here. Now i'm studing in Kyiv and travel around Kyiv region. Also i was in Lviv, Khmelnytskyi, Medzhybizh (small town in Khmelnytskyi region), Mykolaiv, Ochakiv (Mykolaiv region), long time ago i was in Lugantsk. Of course i'm in love with Crimea. Sea, mountains, architecture, ancient places, nature - all here is incredible. The most beautiful city? Kyiv. The most picturesque? Lviv.
  Few years ago I've started traveling abroad. I visited Israel, Czech Republic, Poland, Cyprus and Belgium.

• My proudest accomplishments

  I have a gold medal for excellent studing at school, many diplomas for winning the
  School Olympiads on geography, history, Ukrainian language, biology, mathematics, physics, chemistry (in school i was a specialist of a broad profile 😃). Now i'm studying at historical faculty of the best university of Ukraine.

• My interests in other cultures

  I'm studing at historical faculty and i must know many about different cultures. Also i like geography, ethnology and sociology from childhood. Knowledges about different cultures make me more interesting to other people, they give me possibility to understand other people around the world better.

• A personal challenge

  I left all what i had at times of Crimea occupation by Russia and moved to the territory under Ukrainian government control. I did't want to live under occupation goverment with people, who have changed to unknowingly. I and my mother had to build our life from zero.

• Favourite books/authors/films

  Before university i liked utopia, adventure or psychological books. Now mainly i read science or science-popular books.
  In films i also like adventures, psychological films, sometimes drama, science fiction, but the most i like good comedies.
  I can't choose any books or films because i cant remember all what i saw or read.

• I always enjoy talking about...

  About many things... Football, nature, travelling, culture, tradition, childhood, society, dreams, music, films and many others.

• Personal skills

  I can listen others; be a private psychologist. Depend on situation, i can be tough or soft, fair or unprincipled.

• Childhood pleasures

  When all family eating; visiting places where i've never been, watching cartoons and climbing on trees)

• 10 years from now

  Earlier i had plan for all my life. But now all changes. I don't look so far. But if you ask what I wish to me, I'll answer that I want to have a lovely wife, who will be part of me and I will be part of her. I want to have 3 kids, healthy relatives. Familly the main. Also i want have my house, which will be my world where can I rest from the world. I want to have a job with a good payment, job which will help other people.

• I'm excited about...

  Try to understand what i want from my future, where should i be, what should i do.

• Something uncommon about me

  I fished on a warship 😃 If serious, I'm a personality, I don't try to be like others, do what others do, think as other think.

• As a child, I wish...

  Be a president and change ukrainian society to better, where all will be happy.

• It was better before

  People communicated more in real live, not via gadgets. Now even having an possibility to communicate in real life, often people prefer use gadgets, social networks.

• It is better now

  Medicine, science, possibilities to travelling, comminication with people around the world.

• I wish people knew more about...

  Other people. Even in our time, when frontiers disappear not only at maps but also among cultures, more of people remain closed and they are afraid to show themselves.

• Life regrets

  I'm not regret about anything. Every stupid moment in my life created modern me. All troubles, problems, difficult situations change us to better. We find out something new about us and life.

• I feel concerned about...

  Money. Money rules the world. People ready to do everything for the money.

• A career without obstacles

  100% that I want to help people. I see 2 ways in front of me. First - to become a politician and try to change society for better. But this is very hard and policy is a very dirty career. Second - to become a family therapist. Maybe I will not be able to help many people. But i see, that many of us need help to understand obvious things, that every family have problems from time to time; children and parents always will have problems, but it's not because someone wants to manipulate someone else. If I could help even a few families to live in harmony and I could help them not to fall to pieces, it will be great.

• My feeling about the future

  I don't thinking about future a lot. Of course something will improve, but some things (like Artificial Intelligence, worsening of the psychological state of people, environmental degradation, partial extinction of flora and fauna through human activity) frighten me. I hope that people will think about future, will take all under control and develop an action plan to address the problems.

• My parents and me

  My mom doesn't like changes and even scared of them. For her, stability is the best. Of course this is something right, but I think changes give us opportunities to growth and become better. I like change different things in my life from time to time and it realy helps me.
