I'm from Ukraine.
After graduating I worked as a school teacher, then I decided to see the world, to experience life in another country. So I went to the Netherlands for a year as an au-pair. It was one of the best decisions I've made, I'm so happy I've done it! It was an amazing year! Now I'm in Italy as an au-pair.

I try to use every opportunity for travelling! And I try to write about it on my Instagram, so feel free to follow @natie_travel I'm always eager to learn something new, to discover new places and meet interesting people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel, to find new friends, to get to know other cultures and languages, to experience new things and participate in interesting events.

Interests

I like travelling, photography, learning languages, reading books and watching movies with happy endings (romances, adventure and detective stories). Also I like listening to music, dancing, singing, painting and drawing.
