Hi. My name is Dima.

I was born and raised in the least touristy European country – Moldova. I spent 9 years living in Ukraine, 1 year in Portugal, and I’ve always been travelling. For me, home is not a place, it’s a feeling.

Like most people on this website, I really enjoy travelling and I am always looking for opportunities to do it.
I believe that travelling is the only thing that can truly shape you as a real person – breaking stereotypes, cleansing your soul, and opening your heart with kindness. It is my passion and my greatest love.

My dream destinations at the moment (ranked by priority, from higher to lower) are:

1. Svalbard

2. Greenland

3. Brazil

4. Mongolia

5. Iceland

6. USA

Of course, I would love to visit many other places too, but these have the highest priority. The nice thing is that from this list, only the US requires a visa for my passport.

I am a rather calm person. I don’t smoke. Sometimes I like drinking beer or wine (usually beer 😉). At times I’m more extroverted, at times more introverted. All personality tests say I’m more of an extrovert, but I personally consider myself more of an introvert.

Please always leave a reference if you host me or if I surf with you. I really value honesty.
