CURRENT MISSION

Be the change, one step at a time

ABOUT ME

We enjoy opening the world to each other. Through all these years that we've been together we showed each other a great number of fun things. I got Ivan to go abroad for the first time, he made me learn snowboading and fall in love with the mountains in winter (before I honestly thought that only crazy people go to the mountains in winter). He taught me things about photography, photoshop, computers, light, video that girl isn't supposed to know. I taught him to be a bit messy in life and made his learn foreign languages. He moved to another city for me, and then we moved to a different country together. I guess, we just love showing each other something new and then having one more thing to talk about.

PHILOSOPHY

Try something new for 30 days :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting and surfing :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have been mainly hosting so far, had a separate room in our Kyiv apartment, that's why had great experience in welcoming CS members. As for surfing, it was mainly on our friends' couch, but now we are planning on traveling a bit so we'll start surfing :)

Interests

We enjoy living our life in the most active way possible. We love traveling, being outdoors, meeting people, listening to live music. We are both snowboarding, learning to skimboard and walk the slackline. We love cooking and eating delicious food, giving presents to our friends and inviting them over for coffee (which is also one of the greatest passions in our life) Ivan is also a skydiver and a freelance photographer, which means that we can spend hours in one place with his camera.
