Dear friends, I want to start hosting again - - as soon as possible, please text me♥️

My name is Masha, I live in Kiev, and it somehow happened that a great deal of the best moments in my life were shared with my couchsurfing hosts or guests 😄
If I accept your request/ offer to host you / send you a request to host me, it means that from your profile or letter I feel that we might get this "couchsurfing connection" , you know what I mean. I do not need to add a secret hidden word to my profile to check if you read it or not. 😆 If you are my kind of person, I will feel it!
I DO NOT ANSWER TO PEOPLE WITHOUT REFERENCES. Please understand - you may be a nice person, but I am a girl, not too physically strong, and I just want to feel safe!
Just to make everything clear - I HAVE A BOYFRIEND whom I LOVE very much! I offer you my house, my food, my time and my friendship. But if you are using CS as a dating website, I do not judge you, I am simply not your best choice.
Please mind that I only accept requests or invite couchsurfers when I have free time and desire to spend time with them. No "I just need a place to sleep" people at my place :)

There are two things in this world that always make me happy: my job and my crazy trips. I love hitch-hiking, couch-surfing, meeting new people - getting to know life and feeling alive.
I work as a wine purchase manager, so good wines are a part of my life.
I believe that travelling is not about visiting places, it is about meeting people - getting to know things you would never have thought of. Every new person you meet can become your teacher in some way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Many people have hosted me on couch surfing, and finally I have an opportunity to return my karmic debt :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Modern literature - Russian, Europian, Japanese

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitch-hiking from Ukraine to Georgia and back
Falling from a glacier and surviving
Missing a plane
Crossing the Polar circle and seeing the Arctic ocean
Starting my job at 19 (economic analysis)
Working for the biggest and the best shop of wines, spirits and healthy foods in Europe
Trip to Mexico and Tanzania!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love my city - even though it might seem too crowded.
And I will be happy to show you:
- the ancient part of the town
- Ukrainian "witch mountains" :)
- the best cocktail bar, the best coffee and the best hookah in this city!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Please note:

- I do NOT host people with no or few references; you may be a very nice person, but I am concerned about my safety
- I live in a one room apartment. I have an inflatable mattress for Couchsurfing people, hope that works for you
- I mostly work from home, but sometimes I have to go to the office from 9.00 till 19.00. - you will have to leave the house with me, because I simply do not have extra keys :
- I will be happy to show you the city, cook for you, hang out with you, go for a drink or for a hookah, after work or on weekends if you like, because hospitality is what CS is for in the first place!😄
- people who judge other people (race, gender, political concerns, etc.) and people who believe that the woman's sense of life is to be a good wife and mother are NOT welcome
