Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Everyone talks about couchsurfing - so why don't I try it?

Well, it's hardly surprising that traveling and cultural sharing can help you to expand your horizons and take a fresh look at your own life. And who else but locals can provide you with some insights into the very heart of the country, who else can show you some underground, non-mainstream city sights? And of course. every journey means memories - let`s create them together!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

At various times I was begging in the Paris metro, stayed in Montserrat Caballe`s former room, got past the security guards into the meeting with Angela Merkel, and climbed the highest Ukrainian peak without a guide

Hope it`s enough for today - the greatest things are still to come!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can read palms! (no matter it`s a psychological trick)
What is more, you can be sure I will provide you with Ukrainian culture starter pack, so you will hardly escape a profound discussion of national mentality issues!

Ukrainian souvenirs as a bonus!
