Hi! I'm Iryna (or Irene or Ira, as you wish :))
I'm a Christian, a family photographer, dreamer, traveler, foodie and life lover. As a philologist by profession, I've read too many texts and one day decided I'm done with it. I chose photography which I love more and read for pleasure only now :) There was a bunch of years as a photo editor in a publishing house and now I'm on my own with much more time for myself and exploring the world...
I'm an easy-going and open-minded person, I guess, but you have to make all conclusions by yourself, hah ;)

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Travelling is the biggest my passion for the last years.
Since my husband doesn't share this feeling much, I often travel as a solo backpacker. But sometimes we travel together. He isn't into cities but more of a nature lover guy. As for me, I like both ways and just love to know the country on different sides it can show me... And I believe the best way to know another country is to communicate with locals and to try national cuisine as well :)

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I live with my husband in a small suburb village near Kyiv. So, if you decide to visit Ukrainian capital I can show you its best sides or give you at least some tips on where to go or what to do if I have no time to accompany you.
