Overview
About Me
Introvert and extrovert in one. Willing to live a life full of wonderful travels and funny stories which I will be sharing with likeminded people.
Plant and animal lover (especially cats), experienced pet and house sitter, vintage fan, connoisseur of art and street food, figure skating armchair critic, a bit of a painter with experience in data analytics, a bit of a dancer when no one is looking, mandala weaver, yoga fan, but lazy one🤦♀️, freelancer, vegeterian, but not always😂, proud pedestrian who would like to get a license, but is afraid of driving, volunteer, hitchhiker, student, employee, sooo I’m just a normal human being, who can’t stand Monday mornings and sometimes have problems with deadlines!

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: everything from Instrumental to hard rock, I've discovered for myself Dolly Parton recently, so for a few days now I have her songs on the repeat.
Movies: like documentaries, but I’ll always have time to rewatch Harry Potter or the Lord of the Rings. Whenever I’m sick, I rewatch House M.D.
Books: graduated in philology, so in short, I love the classics, however open to the discussions about modern literature. Reading Orwell now. Learning French to read The Little Prince in the original.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
This may sound boring to someone, but meeting the sunrise in the mountains above 2,000 m from the sea level was one of the most amazing things I’ve ever done
And I do live without instagram!!
Teach, Learn, Share
I’m from Odesa, the beautiful Black Sea coastal city in the South of Ukraine. Moved to live in another country at the age of 17. Used to study in Poland and now I’m temporary based in the UK.
I can share my experience in projects like the World Youth Days 2016, short exchange Erasmus+ programs, House and pet sits as well as low-cost student trips.
I speak fluently a few languages, so let’s trade 😁.
That’s not a lot, but I hope, enough to start with.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Some sweets & chocolate from the UK🙂
Oh, and If you like handmade craft, I can weave for you Mexican mandala which is called ‘Ojo de Dios’ - just let me know 🧘♀️
