I am quite simple and open-minded girl from Ukraine. Study International Relations. I am curious about this world and its secrets and I like to discuss it with other people. I like to laugh a lot and appreciate good sense of humor. Learn how to play guitalele (musical instrument: half ukulele, half acoustic guitar). Currently trying to understand what is inspiration and how to get it. Love deep talks as well as chats about nothing. I don't like to sit in one place and I'm really easy-going ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, I can tell you about geopolitical situation of Ukraine or how to get a grant for your project... but only if you are interested in that kind of staff. I also can teach you how to choose a ripe avocado and not tart persimmon:)

Anyway, I also want you to share your knowledge with me, whatever you are passionate about)
