Hi, nice to meet you !

My name is Zlata, I'm graphic design student from Kyiv. I'm open-minded, outgoing and generous. A bit shy, but communicative person.

I like long walks, collecting vinyl records, drawing/painting, designing posters, taking pictures with my film camera.
I'm vegetarian.

Also, I'm a happy owner of funny dog Bisou (in french "kiss"). In the summer 2017 my family adopted her from the shelter. Now I can't imagine my life without her :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm really excited about Couchsurfing. I think it's the best place to know something new about different cultures and find friends from all over the world.
