About Me

Currently, not in Ukraine

*********************************
Hi everyone! :)

A few words about me: I am an open-minded person who is crazy about music.
My other passion is traveling.
I love to walk and look around.
I am interested in everything in this life: from architecture to economics, from music to astronomy.
I am always looking for a way to learn about different cultures, people.

I like to have fun, go dancing, climb castles, meet foreigners, go to the cinema.
But I can also sit at home and watch TV with food all day.

Sometimes I share lunch/dinner with my hosts, and it is important to say that I have been a vegetarian all my life, so please no steak houses 😂

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am here because I like to meet new people, expand my horizons.
Travel and explore the world.
And I think Couchsurfing is the best place to meet new people and also learn about another culture.

Interests

I like to look for places where I can touch history.
I can also walk alone for a long time, and it will not be a burden for me.
But I also like to be in a big company and share my friends' hobbies.
I am like a universal soldier, absorbing information and trying to share it with others :D

Music, Movies, and Books

I like different kind of music. Such as rock, blues, jazz, techno, trance, some rap.
Also, I like to visit concerts, I did visit Papa Roach, The Cure, Stereophonics, Placebo, OOMPH, RED, Linkin Park. IAMX, God is an Astronaut, Garbage, 30 Seconds to Marc, She Wants Revenge and others.

If you asked me about my favorite films, it will be difficult for me to give you an answer.
In my childhood I was a big fun about "Die Hard 1,2,3 " with Bruce Willis and all movie with Jackie Chan.
But now I like more... how to explain...food for brain) Such films like " Yes Man" , "Hector and the Search for Happiness", "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" . These movies help you understand what is important in your life.

It may sound funny, but my favorite book is Harry Potter.
Some people think that this book is only for children, but for me it is something more.
This is a book about courage, self-sacrifice, support, how to be a good person and a best friend.

I have also read many other books such as Loneliness In The Net, Norwegian Wood, The Great Gatsby, Fahrenheit 451, The Picture of Dorian Grey, 1984, Alchemist, 11 Minutes, Veronica decides to die, White Nights etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In the summer of 2017, I did the wildest thing in my life.
I travelled back and forth from home Ukraine to Portugal on my own, hitchhiking and staying with couchsurfers.
The best decision and experience of my life.
Seriously, I still can't believe it happened.

Also, I was living DN style last 1,4 years in South America.
Next thing, i hope, is Asia.
It's like a drug, you just can't stop :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share stories from my travels with you.
Also, I can share Ukrainian culture with you.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would like to spend some time with my hosts.
I can keep a company on a trip, dance (but blame yourself :D)
