Hello! I’m from Crimea, a beautiful peninsula on the Black Sea. I love movies, noodles, lemonades, meeting new people, hiking in the mountains, and traveling. I’ve visited 40 countries—all without flying. I’ve never been on a plane!

I believe I have three key positive qualities: tolerance, a good sense of humor, and a constant desire to learn and discover new things. Of course, that’s not all, but I think these are the most important.

My greatest journey began in 2012 when I hitchhiked through 12 Asian countries, traveling from Ukraine to Vietnam and back. It was a 10-month adventure. But my travels didn’t stop there. I’m always dreaming about new trips—and sometimes, I make them happen!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I'm here because Couchsurfing allows me not only to travel but also to meet new people. I've made many friends through Couchsurfing, and that's really cool.

Couchsurfing also makes connecting with locals much easier. You don’t have to worry about how to meet people—you can naturally interact with those from different countries. I really enjoy that.

兴趣

I’m passionate about cinema, literature, traveling, collecting coins, exploring beautiful places, and enjoying a bit of good alcohol—maybe some wine.
