Hey! ;)

I'm a 3rd year Computer Science student. Driven, enthusiastic and, shortly to say, - Ukrainian.

On September 2022, I moved to Canada in part of the academic mobility at the University of Toronto and will be there till the end of December. Living in another country whilst the war is not only about being in a safe place but also broadening of the outlook. New connections, new skills - all of these things are needed and will be useful when returning to Ukraine.

Now, I live and work in Warsaw, Poland, I also continue my studies remotely. Really have an intense life - always going somewhere, traveling for job or personal things, trying to cope with everything. I would be really grateful for everyone who agrees to host me. I don't need too much - just a place to sleep and a socket, please.

Despite the fact of being the CS student, I'm really into philology and literature. I love to talk with people about books. I also bought a camera a few days ago to try myself in photography, so now having one more reason to travel :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Currently living and working in Warsaw, I am eager to make the most of my travels. Due to my busy and dynamic life, I often need to be in different places at the same time. I'm looking for places to stay and good people to connect and share a cup of coffee as well as life stories. I believe in the kindness of fellow travelers and am keen to build new friendships and expand my international network.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

As a volunteer at the ceremony, I made the reporters of one of the cutting-edge Ukrainian TV channels take a Covid-19 test. Everyone apart from me was afraid that they would not come back, but they not only passed the coronavirus test, but also filmed the event in a fascinating way.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am always open to excentric but warm conversations related to any topic, no matter what is that - programming, knitting or shopping.

With a great pleasure, will share my knowledge of Ukrainian culture and become your international friend! :)
