Hi, I`m from Ukraine, but now I live in Chicago. I`m florist, who is learning how to code. My dream is to be a software developer and travel around the world. Travelling inspires me, broadens my mind. Travelling is a great way to understand your goals and what`s really important in your life, I like to sing Ukrainian songs and to play guitar. https://www.instagram.com/kateryna_tu/

One Amazing Thing I've Done
I totally changed my life, came to the USA and decided to learn programming languages. It was a huge step for me. Now I work, study and discover some beautiful places in USA.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Green or black, red or white, fruit or herbal tea(yes, we are tea-lovers)), Ukrainian songs, guitar. We live near train station, so I can drive you to the station, if I have time - I can show you some beautiful places nearby. (Chicago Botanical Garden, a lot of lakes for kayaking , places for hiking). 40 min to Chicago Downtown.
