Overview
About Me
Hi, I'm Andriy! I’m originally from Ukraine, but for the past 11 years, I've been living in the charming Bavarian town of Bamberg, Germany. This place has become my cozy little corner of the world, but my heart is always set on exploring new horizons. I’m passionate about travel and have been lucky enough to visit over 80 countries so far, each adventure fueling my curiosity to discover more.
I'm an outdoor enthusiast who adores the mountains, whether it’s hiking, cycling, or simply soaking in the views. I love staying active and enjoy sports like running and swimming. When I’m not exploring new landscapes, you can find me at concerts or listening to good music—it’s another passion of mine.
Professionally, I work in IT, focusing on automation and tech, which I genuinely enjoy. I’m always eager to learn about the latest gadgets and innovations. Whether it’s talking tech or sharing travel stories, I’m looking forward to meeting new friends from around the world!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I’m on Couchsurfing because I believe that the best way to truly experience a country is through the eyes of its locals. I enjoy learning about different cultures, languages, and traditions, and there's no better way to do that than by connecting with the amazing people who live there.
Whether I'm hosting or staying at someone's place, I’m always up for good conversations, listening to inspiring travel stories, and sharing a few of my own. I believe that travel is not just about seeing new places but about making meaningful connections and creating unforgettable memories.
Looking forward to meeting you and sharing some great experiences together!
