About Me

📌❗I’m here not to find a couple/one-night stand/ whatever some people are looking for, I’m here to learn more about other cultures and meet amazing people from different countries, so please, respect my boundaries.

Heeey! ✈️ I’m so glad to see you on my page!

My name is Palina, you can also call me Po, that’s how my mother called me when I was a child. Until last December, it had been two years since I last saw my parents. I had to leave my homeland, Belarus, due to political prosecution. Now, I reside in Białystok with a refugee passport I received in Latvia 😅

But let's not focus on sad things! I'm alive, healthy, not in prison, I travel a lot and I'm very happy to meet wonderful people!

I work as a fundraiser for top Belarusian YouTube channels and frequently write articles on topics like climate and politics. In my free time, I like to do sports, go hiking and travel travel travel. I’m also interested in art💚

I’m a feminist, LGBTQ+ and eco-activist. I’m a Belarusian and just a brave woman. If any of this bothers you, or if you simply think that the Russian war in Ukraine is normal, and that Putin and Lukashenka are good leaders, then better don’t bother me.

I don't give a priority to cis men due to safety reasons, but either way I'm open to just meet if I see you're a safe person 🥺

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Due to political persecution, I had to pay about €8,000 to my educational institution in Belarus. I raised this money in 4 days.
