I grew up in a small city in Crimea, surrounded by amazing nature and swimming all summer.

I started and restarted studying a few times (international relations - journalism & mass media - economy). Currently I work as organizational & digital transformation consultant in apparel industry.

I would like to restart traveling more and meet up with locals to share some moments together. When traveling, I don’t spend too much time on shopping, dinners and taking photos of myself but I like to just walk & explore the city, drinking coffee & trying local food, merge with the people & observe life.

In Paris I am also looking for tennis or ping pong partner ;)

I could also show you around, I like this feeling of feeling like a tourist in my city. I love walking around, going to museums & parks and a glass of wine sometime ;)

I would describe myself as both quite introverted but open-minded and easy-going person. I try to live in a quite minimalistic (“less is more”) way of life and always travel light

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I used to travel and meet people via CS a few years ago and it was amazing experience which I’d like to renew. I am happy to finally reactivate this profile 8 years later

Interests

I have quite a wide range of interests revolving around art, culture, psychology, technology and its effects on mental health, well-being, nature and preserving it, human and animal rights and I’m always eager to know about other people’s passions
