About Me

I've been on the road most of the time during the last couple of years, not spending a lot of time in my home country, making traveling almost a lifestyle. I've learned a lot, met lots of people, got new experience and skills (sometimes pretty weird like planting papayas, cracking coconuts with a machete or sleeping anywhere, whether it is a jungle or a desert:)).

P.s. please don't ask me about my plans for the trip, for future or whatever :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy meeting new people and try to use any opportunity to do that. As my experience proves, there are more chances to meet somebody truly interesting and "not-like-the-rest" in the traveler's community which CS actually is. And that's wonderful :)

Even if I'm not able to host you (while I'm out of country, for example), feel free to contact me if you have any questions about Kharkov and I'll do my best to help!

And on the other hand, I would appreciate any kind of help or advice while I'm traveling, cause who can know the place better than the locals?..

Interests

Lately I've become a kinda healthy lifestyle freak.. a bit too obsessed with working out and right kind of food and I also don't drink and try to go to bed early.. But I guess it's not the worst thing to be obsessed about, eh? :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I read lots of Russian fiction, watch mainly silly Hollywood comedies, and listen to almost any kind of music (preferably with nice "girlish" lyrics :))

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Volcanoboarding in Nicaragua
