About Me

After graduation worked for a travel agency and started to discover the world.
At some point realised that it's too cold in Ukraine (it was minus 25 degrees :-)) and within one month moved to Thailand, where I've spent 5 amazing years.
Currently back to Ukraine, but I'm planning to move again.

I love to meet new friends and learn from them. Every culture has its own great features and ideas. It helps to grow and change your life.

I'm very active. I like hiking, dancing, yoga, walking.

I'm optimist. And believe that any person can reach his/her goals with faith and actions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was traveling a lot, but now is the time when I want to change my traveling style and I would love to meet much more new friends. I think that CS is the best place for that.
I want to share my experience and learn more about your mentality, traditions and your way of life.

Currently I'm planning a solo trip to Europe, so I'm looking for a company at different spots that I'll visit.

Interests

I like to discover new places and learn about a destination from inside.
Love both big cities to feel the vibe and movement, and quiet nature to relax and find harmony.

I adore water: lakes, rivers, seas... Swimming is great.

I love kids and playing with them. They are so pure in their emotions and thoughts.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sleeping under the stars on the beach

Kayaking for a week

Exploring Thailand (I love Thai nature, food, people)

And many other tings and moments.
But I try to learn to enjoy every single day to the fullest and find smth amazing in every life situation.

Teach, Learn, Share

Every person next to us can teach us something: starting with their knowledge and experience, to a supporting hand and a smile in a needy moment, to a wise word that can influence someones life.

I want to learn to surf and ride a bicycle. I'm probably one in a million who can't do that :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

My smile and positive energy ;)

Also you can practice your English (Russian/Ukrainian).
We can talk, play, laugh
