ABOUT ME

Well, I am a travel addict. Was trying to live my life without it but it's just impossible.

Wherever I go, people call me "a crazy Ukrainian".
Why?
You can try to find it out by yourself.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything happens for the best.
Strongly believe in the law of circulation of energy. That means what you do to others will always come back to you. The more open, kind and smiley you are, the more often you will be surrounded by this kind of people.
Ah, and recently I found out that my god is mountains. I have extreme respect to them, I come there when I feel bad or stressed and they heal me. I "preach" about them to everyone I meet and try to introduce them to the religion of "mountain lovers".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For now, I am often a guest rather than a host.
But back to Ukraine will do my best to give all the kindness I received back.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In most cases, I am pretty sure that if you read profiles carefully, you have little chances to get into trouble.
Some of couchsurfers became good friends of mine and my travel buddies.
Thanks to couchsurfing I experienced things that are just impossible to have in any other situation like taking a ride by motto around Bologna or a dinner on the rooftop in Lisbon.
