I'm a book designer and illustrator. Working as an art editor and illustrator for Ukrainian publishing houses and a graphic designer in Basel Institute on Governance. Doing my master in Service Design in HSLU.

Most of all I'd love to travel to the South and North Pole and to the Space. But Japan and Iceland could be great also ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because it's how the big world becomes small and cozy :--)

Frank, Led Zeppelin, Richie Havens, the Moody Blues, Camel, King Crimson, Dead Can Dance (album 1979 mostly), Blackmore's Night, Silly Wizard, Duke Ellington, Nina Hagen, the Aller Værste ❤️
