About Me

At the moment I am finishing my M.A. studies at Kyiv National Taras Shevchenko University. My majors are translation and interpreting from English and Spanish. But I am really fond of learning new things, new languages, new cultures, so since 4th of April this year I am studuing at Lepzig University under ERASMUS+ program (German as a Foreign Language). This is a reaaly challenging experience as I haven't neither spoken German or studied it for several years.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I want t meet new people and visit new places. Ordinary hotel booking doesn't provide you with such personal interaction experience, while couchsurfing is benefitial for both guest and host

Interests

Besides my professional interests I am really fond of photography, theater (I even played in an amateur thater and participated in a couple of festivals) and any kind of social activities (I was always a proactive person and therefore participated in volunteering, student self-government, etc.)
