Welcome! Let me say a few words about myself.
I'm a:

- Foreign languages and cultures lover
From childhood I've been interested in other cultures and their ways of life - they excited me. Perhaps that's why my higher education is directly connected with understanding other cultures and speaking foreign languages. Currently I'm fluent in English and learning German. Also have some basics of Italian.

- Keen traveler
I believe that travel is to the mind what exercise is to the body. If I have some free time, I devote it to traveling - around my native country, to the neighboring countries or far-far away. It's always exciting and I can't live without these emotions. I like to learn new things as I travel - as much as possible. I’m eager to expand the boundaries of the familiar world, meet new people, experince new ways of life, and return a better person.

- Learner and life explorer
I love getting out of my comfort zone. I find happiness in learning new things about the world. I educate myself all along the way. Life is the best teacher.
Also I'm keen on self-development.

- Ecology geek
I care about nature and environmental protection. I believe that people can change their habits and be more conscious. I recycle, try to reduce the use of plastic, cut down on waste in general and just live an eco-friendly way of life. I take part in ecological activities and inform people in the community about the ways to support environmental protection.

- International volunteer&youth activist
Volunteering has become a significant part of my life. I volunteer in Belarus in local NGOs and abroad. Here I help with organizing different youth activities and events. I love taking part in international volunteering projects - it is a perfect opportunity to learn about the world, and also about yourself, to contribute to something and give a lot.
I also participate in training courses and youth exchanges, such as Erasmus + projects.

- Coffee/wine/goodfood enthusiast
I just really like cooking and eating good, healthy food. In the countries I visit I try all the specialties and I believe that cuisine is a great part of cultures and can say a lot about it. Good wine and good coffee do magic.

- Just an open-minded, optimistic and kind-hearted person.
Basically, I always see the good in people and in everything around me. I have friends all around the world and this is so precious to me.
I believe that happiness is a way of travel, not a destination.
And I'm happy to travel, make new friends and expand my knowledge.
