I'm a Ukrainian living and studying in Poland. 20 years old, traveled most of Europe and want to discover other parts of the world, something exotic.

I love learning languages, and whenever I visit a new country, I want to learn its language, and often I actually start learning it.

I play ukulele, it's my passion! I take it on most of my trips and never get tired of its sound.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing for sure was climbing on the one of the tallest lighthouses in Europe! It is located in Russia, 2 hours from St. Petersburg and it took me 26 hours to get there from Ukraine. When I reached that small village, I asked people how to get to that lighthouse and everyone said it's a federal object and cannot be visited by any civilian, especially foreigners. Desperately walking into a restaurant for a tea, I told my story to the local woman and she said that she knows the lighthouse man and she called him! He was out of town already and that meant a failure. I went back to the train station but missed my train, it left just in front if me. I went back to the restaurant for a meal. While waiting for it, the lighthouse man called the woman and said that he is coming back to the town and can let me in if I want. So he picked me up by car and after 15 minutes I was on the top of one of the tallest lighthouses in Europe, looking at an endless snow desert. A place where barely few people stood. There is a picture of that incredible view in my profile :)
