Hello! I am Ukrainian 🇺🇦

Currently as a refugee in Italy (Ciampino, Rome) due to the Russian military invasion of my country. SUPPORT UKRAINE: https://savelife.in.ua/en/donate-en/

Traveling is my passion! It helps me to understand better myself and the world.
I am open-minded, smiling, always looking for adventures and try to go out from the comfort zone :)

I prefer hitchhiking rather than the bus or the train.
I love deep and sincere conversations about life, feelings and experiences.
I can spend hours observing the stars, the sunsets, the mountains, the sea etc.
I am searching for myself and my place in the world.
I try to enjoy the little things and notice the beauty and wonder in everything around me.
I enjoy mountain hiking and tent camps, festivals, youth exchanges (like Erasmus+, AIESEC), education programs.
Besides I am playing ukulele and adore reading. 
And also I love bikes and dreaming to make a bike trip one day :) 

In Ukraine I was engaged in social activities, scouting, project managment, volunteering and non-formal education. In 2019 I participated in the AIESEC volunteering project in Italy and teached children at school. In 2019-20 I studied in the Ukrainian Leadership Academy. Besides I worked in the youth center and in the NGO where I organized events for young people.
I enjoy working with children. Last summer I worked like a group leader in the summer camp for kids. The nearest time I am planning to participate in ESC volunteering project for a year to work in kindergarten or school.
I lead an active lifestyle, I like sports (Kayaking/bike/ski/skate/rollerblading etc).
I am intrested in design, arts, hand-made. Also I'm interested in graphic design and video editing.

My dreams are:
- PEACE IN MY HOME COUNTY 💙💛
- Travel all around the world! First of all I want to go to Norway and other Scandinavian countries
- Visit The Burningman!
- Jump with a parachute and try diving

I am trying to make my life bright and full of unforgettable moments and emotions!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Now I am discovering coushsurfing as a new way to communicate with people from diffrent countries and cultures :-)
I enjoy opening something new, developing myself by communicating with people.
I believe that international dialog is very important. If all nationals of the Earth will communicate and build a friendship, we can reach peace
