I'm a girl from Ukraine who likes learning and exploring the world we live in

Things that make me happy in a random order: friends, bicycle, swimming, chocolate, hiking, beautiful nature, kittens, mom and dad, music festivals, sweeding, my job, travelling, hugs, meaningful conversations, sky, snowboarding, reading, skiing, coding, learning.
My moto is super simple: just do what you like, don't do what you don't like and do no harm to other living creatures

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to make friends and find out something new about how people from very different places live and think

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: American Gods, Fahrenheit 451, Flowers for Algernon, The Dune, Dandelion wine, The Ocean at The end of The Lane and lots of others. Classic literature and I'm also a fan of Harry Potter, The Lord of The Rings and A Song of Ice and Fire (Game of Thrones). I'd also add King to my favorites but he's too disturbing :)

Recently I've been reading a lot about Ukrainian history and modern Ukrainian literature.

Music: Radiohead, Pink Floyd, Arctic Monkeys, Coldplay, Lera Lynn, The xx, Foals, Alt-j, Stoned Jesus, Wolf Alice, PJ Harvey, Queens of the stone age, God is an astronaut, Iamx, Kyuss, Architects, lots of modern Ukrainian music. I love light (and sometimes not that light) psychedelic rock and fusion
