About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world

ABOUT ME

I appreciate honesty and frankness. I have a positive attitude to life and don't like to bother other people with my problems.

PHILOSOPHY

All that is being done, is being done for better.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm participating in translation of some pages from English into Ukrainian. Hope I'll find some other ways of participating in CS2 project, I'd really like to.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted many people in my flat in Kyiv and Phuket, Thailand and I've been hosted in a number of countries during my big trip to Asia

Interests

My hobbies are mountain trekking, hiking, playing football (soccer), sightseeing and many others. I'm also interested in languages and getting information about different countries and places of the world. I enjoy watching wildlife and hope that sometimes in future it would be possible for me to work/volunteer for some kind of refuge or national park.
Well, if smth else comes to my mind, I'll try to add it here.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some Ukrainian.
I have some theoretical and practical knowledge of biology (esp. molecular biology, biochemistry, genetics), so I can share this knowledge with you if you need it.
