Hi, I'm Anika.

Having grown up and lived in several different countries, I feel most at home in a multicultural environment: Ukrainian Borscht (soup), Kölsch beer, Turkish rock music and Argentinian asados all feel like home to me.

I'm passionate about bringing people together and taking care of our planet, and so I've been working in the Sustainable finance and development sector these last years, while helping out in NGOs focused on education in parallel.

Time outdoors is special to me, whether its spontaneous biking adventures, hiking trips in the mountains or enjoying the thrill of surfing ocean waves.

Looking forward to meeting you!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The most beautiful exchanges occur when you meet people with an open heart and open soul - teach me about your culture and share your story, I would be thrilled to widen my horizon and learn as much as I can.

Music, Movies, and Books

Big fan of live music, whether it's jazz, indie, folk or techno/house music.

One book that really inspires me is the autobiography "Educated" that describes the educational journey of a young girl that grew up in a strictly mormone family in the US.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed to the top of the Tolbachik volkanoe in the eastern most Russia.
