“We should concern ourselves not so much with the pursuit of happiness, but with the happiness of pursuit.” — Professor Coreman

Welcome

About

My name is Oleg Ovechkin. Welcome to my personal site, where I discuss a range of topics of my interest.

I enjoy the experience of nature through hiking, backpacking, recording sounds, and taking photographs of places and environments I visit.

Because of my professional background, I am also good with computers, software, and technology in general. I like tinkering with stuff and constantly improving my "home IT." On occasion, those learnings get shared here, mainly as notes to myself. But if somebody else finds them helpful or informative or entertaining - it's a bonus.

Thank you for stopping by!
