About Me

I'm a joyful and sociable person, an optimist by nature. I love reading, good music and movies (mainly psychological drama, documentaries and other sorts giving one some food for thinking). In my free time I also enjoy a long walk out of doors, going out to hikes and picnics, attending a concert of popular music or modern dance, socializing with my friends. I really like a nice intellectual conversation, I think there's nothing like traveling and communication with people from different countries and cultures, as it really makes you more broad-minded. For the future I dream to travel more and learn about the world and its different places, as I know each one is unique. I believe we only live once and should make the most of our life-time :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a free lance translator, tour-guide and business facilitator for foreign visitors for my job. So If you plan on a trip to Ukraine and need an interpreter and/or tour-guide, as well as help with booking accommodation, transportation, getting quality legal consulting or finding links with local companies (in case you are visiting on business) - feel free to contact me! :) For full list of services myself and my team provide, just ask me for my web site and I will give you the link :)

I also hope to make new friends and perhaps meet a special man on this site. I know that no internet service will guarantee meeting that one soul-mate, but even if I just make some new friends, that's cool too! :)

Drop me an email if you feel like getting to know me better and I will gladly reply all interesting letters )))

Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveled to about 25 countries as a traveler, not a "regular tourist" if you know what I mean )) mainly for work in various fields ))) I think traveling and learning new cultures is just amazing..

Teach, Learn, Share

I am not really a teacher, my expertise is providing interpreting, accommodation, transportation and business facilitation services in Ukraine. :) If you are interested in any of those feel free to drop me a note ))

I also want to learn Swahili language - why such an exotic one? Just ask and I will explain ))

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good time with lots of laughing and quality intellectual conversations on any topic from politics and business to fun and travel, as well as cultural exchange guaranteed! :)
