CURRENT MISSION

Explore, talk and listen, learn, love and laugh. Basically, what I've been always doing. See no other "purposes'" in life worth striving for.

ABOUT ME

Hi, I am Julia. I was born and raised in Lviv, Ukraine (best city in the country, no kidding). Work as an interpreter right now but have done so many different things in many different countries. People say that I have lots of stories to tell, and that I am funny :D We'll see about that right?
I am respectful, know what boundaries mean, and I don't smoke.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life EXACTLY the way i would NEVER think i would and that is the BEST thing that could happen to me!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

One cold day in the very end of 2009 (wow) my friend and I left without new things to do...so we signed up, hosted 5 people from different parts of the world in 5 days and celebrated New Year with the best people! It's that easy. At least it was in 2009 :)
