Hi, my name is Olesya, I live in the beautiful country of Belarus. I have many professions, I like to learn new things, try new things, meet new people. I like reading paper books, walking, relaxing in nature. For me, mental comfort is more important than physical. I love loneliness, I respect other people's personal borders. At the same time, I appreciate interesting communication with versatile people. In our digital world, people began to communicate less in person. I love movies, books and bookstores, horseback riding, walking, coffee shops, interested in psychology, I love yoga and swimming.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My first trip is a trip to St. Petersburg, I have long wanted to visit this beautiful city. I hope to go further to other countries.
Despite the difficulties of traveling out, I want to visit many beautiful countries. In 2024 it will be Spain :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once I decided to change something in my life. I quit my job, where I worked for 5 years and was going to work for the rest of my life, went to another city, where there was no housing, no work, no money. And I did it and do not regret it.

I am interested in national sights, unusual atmospheric places that are not in the standard guidebooks, I will gladly drink coffee in your coffee shops, I am interested in the culture, life and traditions of your city, I also love books and bookstores.
