Hello! My name is Daryna Bubniuk. I`m studing International Journalism at Kyiv National University of Taras Shevchenko. I’m working as an news editor at the TV channel. I participate in volunteer movement. I was a volunteer at Eurovision Song Contest 2017 and at the festival of youth initiatives Youthday`17. Besides, I worked as a journalist-volunteer at the project devoted to 25th anniversary of Ukraine`s work at the UN.
I`m an exchange student. This summer I took part in an expert seminar for youth workers "The same opportunity for all" which was held in Poland. Last summer I spent in the United States of America. I participated at Work and Travel programs. My friends and I visited 7 states and 15 towns and cities. Last year I took part in youth excange project in Lithuania devoted to Ukrainian and Lithuanian UNESCO heritage.
In my leisure time I like reading books, watching movies and playing the piano. My other hobby is travelling. I can not imagine my life without visiting different intresting places.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I adore travelling and discovering something new. I want to visit as many places as I can and learn more about different cultures, traditions and ways of life. This is only one way to truly understand the diversity of the world.
I also want to meet new friends from all over the world.

Couchsurfing - it is a great opportunity to discover new countries, cultures and customs, to meet nice people and new friends, to tell about my country and our traditions, to exchange experience, to improve communication skills, maybe even to get out of the comfort zone and just to do something good, to be a part of something great.
