Hello friends, my name is Vladimir or Volodymyr, or how you like) and I come from the beautiful Crimean peninsula surrounded by the Black Sea. In 2019, I discovered the wonderful world of travel with a backpack on my back. in 2019 I walked my first path - camino de santiago, this event definitely divided my life into before and after. Camino is a way of real miracles, I highly recommend everyone to go on this way, today I have done it three times already and every time I was very happy on the way meeting amazing people from all over the world! But since then, my adventures have not been limited to the pilgrimage route, I also love via ferrata, this is also an unforgettable experience. Right now I'm traveling in Europe and I'm about to go on my first Tour du Mont Blanc. My international couchsurfing experience only started this year and so far it has been overwhelmingly positive.
I don't smoke or use alcohol or drugs.
