Hello, dear couchsurfers!

I'm Olia from Ukraine. I love my country with all my heart and, believe me, you will also fall in love with Ukraine when you come here. It's amazing : )

As for me, I like travelling, literature and music, it inspires me a lot. I also write poems and stories. Several times I hitchhiked in Ukraine and it was so unforgettable! Also, I want to hitchhike in Europe some day.

I have studied in Kyiv for 4 years and also have finished a semester in Germany as Erasmus+ student. At the moment I work as a PR-manager in Kyiv and enjoy my life : )

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

During my travels and my half a year stay in Germany I met many kind and open-minded people, and it was a great memorable experience. Now I have friends and acquaintances in many different countries.

I enjoy to find out more about cultures, people and their countries.

I stayed with locals several times, and they were truly cool people. I am very grateful for their hospitality, our talks, walks and time together.

Hence, I am here to meet new people in new countries and places, to travel more and plunge into new worlds. Although, I am not interested in dating.

Unfortunately, I can't host, but I would love to meet some new friends and show you around if I have the time.
