I'm a journalist from Ukraine. Still a student. Actually I don't like to travel, but why not? After all, I must know the place where I live. Besides, I love to talk to new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's nice to think out of the box. But you can't do that while living in one. So, it's high time to move out of the box and meet new people with their own ones.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visited Brussels with my loved one.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can try to teach you some Russian or Ukrainian, share with my food or mind. Can tell you anything about my experience how to survive in Ukraine doing just nothing and so on and so on.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can bring you some small presents from my Homeland. But most importantly, I can cook BORSCH just for you. In additional: almost any topics for conversations you want (please don't make me to talk about quantum physics). I solemnly vow on my girlfriend's garter to be clean and behave nice.
