CURRENT MISSION
To learn something new everyday & to pass that knowledge on to my child.

ABOUT ME
We just moved from California --> Washington, so we're still settling in. We might be able to host on rare occasion. We are always up to meet up in town and show you around!

This page is for both myself and Andriy, my husband. We have been together since 2008 and have spent our days traveling to new places and meeting new people. We are both dedicated friends and do our best to help others when they need it. We are energetic and full of life. Always looking for like-minded individuals to spend our time with.

PHILOSOPHY

Be kind to others and live life to the fullest. Life is short, there is no time for hatred and negativity! Respect others and their views regardless of whether they agree with yours or not.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted and surfed, I would love to keep an even balance of the two!

To us, Couchsurfing is not about a "free place to crash". My home is not a free hostel (and neither is yours). Couchsurfing is about meeting others and sharing genuine moments.We have met friends and made memories that will last a lifetime!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
We have hosted many interesting people in our home in Montana. I loved showing these people around. We have been so fortunate and have surfed with many amazing hosts as well.

Interests

I am interested in everything. My biggest passion is getting outside and enjoying nature. You can usually find me on the trail ;) Oh! and Beer! I love microbrews! Bring me a good IPA and we will be BFF's

Andriy is originally from Ukraine. He has a love for food, beer, and meeting people. He is very smart and a dedicated person.

We both share a love for traveling.

Music, Movies, and Books

E.A. Poe, Chekhov, & Voltaire are among my most current favorites. I listen to everything from country to classical. The only genre I stay away from is "new" trendy music such as Rhianna, Lil Wayne, etc :P
