My name is Liliya. I was lucky to visit nearly 20 different countries, and each of them was unique and interesting. Originally I am from Ukraine but have lived in Canada for a while now. Also, I have lived in the USA for a few months. As a result, I speak Ukrainian, Russian, English and French. The best thing for me is making others smile, whether through my job or a small favor.

I love to meet new people and learn about their cultures, languages, life experiences. It would be a pleasure to share my knowledge, culture and experiences with other people as well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have traveled to many countries and never stayed in all-inclusive as I truly want to get an idea about local culture, mentality, cuisine and things that people are proud of. Couchsurfing is a great platform to make that happen.

*At the moment, I rent a room and can't host visitors:( Looking forward to moving to a new place and being able to host people from different parts of the world.

Interests

I have many interests like most of us do:) I enjoy reading interesting books, attending various events: from work conferences to cultural festivals, exploring new places and things. Have worked and volunteered in various industries: travel, hospitality, aviation, event planning, television.

I am inquisitive by nature and appreciate all life experiences. Prefer to have a positive attitude towards life challenges.
