I am from Kyiv, Ukraine. Currently I live in Zittau, Saxony, Germany. I do here my MA in International Management. If people would ask me to describe my hobbies in 3 words, than it would be Photography, Food, Sport.

My father has a hobby, fishing and photography. Once he showed me how to fish, for me it wasn't such interesting. But on the other day he showed me how people could take nice pics with only one clic, and this was amazing. Since that time I like Photography. In 2009 I did one photography class and this was really interesting. Now I prefer analog photography using my three old cameras: Nikon N90s from 1990s, Yashica T3 from 80s and Olympus MJU:II from 2000s. Some of my analog-digitalized pics are at -- https://www.flickr.com/photos/125743723@N04/ -- I like works from street photographer Eric Kim, he has also a great blog about photography.

Also I like cooking and every time try something new. Although I am a vegetarian, but I can cook for my family, friends and girlfriend.
I study now, but I try to find time for cooking. Also I don't eat junk food, don't drink Coke, Fanta etc., and don't drink alcohol as well. This is only for health reasons.

At my free time I try to do sport. To be honest, I do sport 2-3 times per week, and cycle every day to my university. In 2013 I ran half marathon, and it was really challenging. I don't thing it is connected with sport, but from time to time I donate blood for good purposes.

I like traveling and meeting new interesting people and spending time with them, so people and me could have positive emotions.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I am always excited about different interesting places in the City or Town, which could be shown by people, who live there. And also I like meeting new interesting people.

I don't write dozens of requests, than an attention to one person is miserable. So I just wait for an answer.
