Description

Hey! I’m Nikita, 32 years old. Born in Russia, moved to Ukraine when I was 9, and then to Israel at 18. I served in the Israeli Defense Forces as a paratrooper, and after the army, I spent some time working in tech as a land-scape designer and gardener in an IT company. But eventually, I realized I wanted something more hands-on, something grounded.

That’s when I started guiding desert hikes in Israel — leading people through silence, sand, and stars. Alongside that, I got into construction and landscaping, building homes in the desert using timber frames, hemp blocks, and experimenting with natural materials. I love creating things with my hands, especially when it’s outdoors and close to nature.

In 2023, I studied at Earthship Academy in the New Mexico desert — learning to build off-grid, regenerative structures and systems. That time really deepened my love for raw materials, land, and thoughtful design.

I’ve traveled a lot — climbed mountains in the Himalayas, lived in remote places, and now move around as a digital nomad. I work online as a coach and men’s circle facilitator, mainly for the Russian-speaking community. My focus is on helping people reconnect with themselves — through conversation, nature, and honest presence.

Daily meditation is also a big part of my life. I’m a Vipassana practitioner and have completed several 10-day courses. I’ve also volunteered on courses in both India and Israel.

I enjoy meaningful physical work, especially outdoors — whether it’s building, landscaping, gardening, or anything creative. I love working in a team, learning new skills, and contributing to beautiful, intentional spaces.

More details about your skills

I’m good with my hands and love physical work. I’ve built houses in the Israeli desert using timber, hemp blocks, and natural materials. I also have experience gardening and landscaping — I worked as a gardener in an IT company for a few years, taking care of plants and designing outdoor spaces.

I feel comfortable working with tools, building things, solving problems, and adapting to new situations. I’ve lived and traveled in wild places, so I know how to take care of myself in rare or challenging conditions — including desert and mountain environments.

I’m also familiar with the digital world: I run my own coaching business and men's circles, and I promote my work through Instagram and social media. I use ChatGPT regularly as part of my creative and communication process.

Overall, I’m practical, hands-on, and I learn fast. I like being useful and bringing value wherever I go.
