Hi there! My name is Alena (this name is very hard to pronounce for some foreigners, so I wrote an international variant). I love communicating with people and share my feelings with them. Actually I`m a real chatterer and can support and discuss any theme (if it doesn`t concern racism, sexism and other weird words with suffix "ism"). I like travelling round my own country and I strongly feel that you are not a real traveler if you dont explore destinations of your home. I want to meet new people and share their experience!

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I think couchsurfing is a great possibility to travel around the world, to meet new people, to experience new life and moments and don`t blow out the cash.

Centres d'intérêt

I love languages. Now I`m learning and practicing English and Swedish, so I would be glad to chit chat with any native speaker (and 'other' speakers also!). I adore drawing, especially portraits and dogs (or portraits of dogs). Also I like watching e-courses and think that this is the best way for self-learning and saving money. Well, of course, I like hanging out with my friends.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I prefer pop, easy listening and acoustic. I can watch any films and read any books. Though, my favorite book is "Flowers for Algernon" by Daniel Keyes.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I was born...Life is the most amazing thing we have!

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

As my native languages are Russian and Ukrainian, I would be glad to practice them with anyone who want ( I`m aware of that Russian is especially popular). Besides, I can bring the most tasteful candies that have ever existed: here in Ukraine we have really delicious chocolate.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

Unfortunately, I am living in a dorm room and I can`t share it with guests because of a strict discipline. But I can find a really chip hotel or hostel here in Kiev and show around the city to anybody who wants!
