About Me

Greetings for everyone from the couple of Ukrainian traveling artists!

This is what you need to know about us:

We met in Ukraine on the recruiting event of the school for adults in Poland.

Both of us wanted to live and study in other country.

Harsh realities, routine, working, studying in Poland gave us understanding that, actually, we don't want to settle down.

We just truly wanted to explore the world.

Thanks to this desire and also love to the art, music and cinematography we fell in love and found a common dream - create videos, documentary movies, collages, drawings, photos and travel at the same moment.

We are open, curios people and like to spend our time profitably - learn more about:

art

music

cinema

literature

philosophy

human nature

nature of things

We like walking around, photographing, observing people and unordinary places.

We would love to spend a time with our couchsurfers not only at home, so you can expect us like your city guides.

A big part of our souls belongs to the music, we love different kind of music events, it can be small parties at the bars or clubs, big festivals, private raves or home concerts, that's why you can ask us to join.

We like to play street basketball - if you a baller don't be shy to play with us, we would be happy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Our first travel experience was in Berlin.

We got there from Poznan by hitchhike.

Two days earlier we created a profile on couchsurfing, seeking for a host, we used all our available requests without any results, but it didn't confuse us before our journey. We departed at the catholic easter, so it was difficult to catch a car, that's why we arrived at 19:00 a o'clock. We didn't exchange our money at Poznan and it was the late hour to do it in Berlin.

We needed to stay somewhere for a night so we reserved a room in a hostel. But at the hostel we couldn't pay, because hostel administration doesn't want to take a polish money and offered us to stay in the hostels chilling-dining room, so we slept there. There were people who were drinking all night, speaking loudly and asking us:

- Why you guys don't want to sleep in hostel room?

It was very disturbing for us.

Moral of this fable:

we want to stay with more pleasure people

we understood how important planing a trip previously

we will trying to be closer to the people which know more about traveling, meet different ideologies and learn unfamiliar culture

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After our first meeting we saw each other by chance and it was our first cool thing.

When we saw each other we decided to spend this evening together. It was winter and the weather was too snowy. But this circumstance didn't stop us and we went to the frozen river. During our walk on the ice we penetrate to the ship station. There were two boats. We explored them from the inside.

Once upon a time we were walking near the railroad, not far from the center of Poznan, and found an apple tree. It was November. We collect all the apples, during eight times. We were eating them all the winter.

By chance we turn up on the roof of the old house in the center of Poznan. This house is situated near the fashionable observation deck, but the view from the roof of the house nearby was much more interesting. So we think that we found a cool alternative.

We discover an abandoned factory with large numbers of buildings and found there a shelter of a homeless guy, who was sleeping.

We made 245 kilometers by foot from Vinnitsa to Kiev - it took us 8 days.
