I'm an ordinary girl of 23 who lives a simple, yet quite interesting life. I love travelling as a way to shake things up and get a breath of fresh air. Although, changing the landscape is often not enough — you have to change your mindset as well. And the best way to do that is to meet people with different life experiences.

As for now, I’ve graduated from university couple months ago (Kyiv-Mohyla academy, Kyiv), got my master’s degree in philosophy I've started to participate in various volunteering projects – it is new yet exciting experience for me! I've already participated in eco-project in Carpathian, Ukraine this summer, where I was volunteering and felt in love with this type of activity!! When you work not to produce more things and money but to help others! This autumn I'll be a part of volunteer project in Ommen, Netherlands. I am considering the year as a gap year – I feel like I need to slow down a bit, and listen to myself – my dreams, thought and so on. Lately I've been interested in ceramics and now thinking about learning more about it, start practicing more and maybe work on probation in some studio.

All in all, I'm a big fan of cinema, books and music – pretty basics things, but they make everyday life a lot brighter. Besides, I love cooking (I'm vegetarian by the way) – especially baking, making photos, riding a bike, hiking and going on a long walks.

Mostly, I am traveling with my boyfriend Yura who is great guy! :) https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/yurii-boiko-1

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I love traveling and I think that one of most important parts of traveling is people. I think that traveling is not worth much if you don't get acquainted withe the local culture and don't immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the place you are visiting.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

My life so far!!

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Being a philosophy student I'm already tired of sharing intellectual experiences, so the most valuable things for me are sincerity and openness.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Although I often seem like a shy person, if I get to know people better I freely share life and emotional experience.
