Hey there!

My name is Daryna, I am a 20-year-old law school student from Kyiv, Ukraine.

I used to travel all around Europe when I was a kid, thanks to my dance group and the festivals we attended at the time. My love for travel only grew with time as I started volunteering and working abroad.

I love working with kids and have a whole load of motivation to help others out while making sure their children are safe, healthy and happy. I worked at a summer camp in the US last year and it's safe to say that I had the time of my life there.

It's been a year and I want to go somewhere new and exciting!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting new people and immersing in their cultures is one of my favourite ways to communicate and grow as a person.

I am a huge believer that you should give just as much as you receive when you travel and I want to do more of it!
