Important information: Guys, I am new to Couchsurfing and I will be accepting friends requests only form people’s that I’ve met and my friends. I am out of Calgary August 16th-September 30th Hi! My name is Vitaliia, or Olya 😊 I have two names, so whichever is easier for you to pronounce. Sometimes I feel like having two names means I have more than two personalities. 😂 I’m a kind soul who loves to travel. I work with children and youth, have a background in art, and I’m a certified trauma-informed coach originally from Ukraine. I currently live in Canada and am in the process of changing my life and relocating to Spain. I feel like I’m in that in-between stage where my old identity no longer exists, and my new one is just beginning to emerge. It’s exciting, a little scary, and beautiful at the same time. I love meeting new people, sharing good conversations and good vibes, but I also really value my quiet time and personal space. I’d say I’m an introvert who learned how to be an extrovert. I’m into healthy eating and a healthy lifestyle. I don’t drink alcohol, I’m not really into parties, but I absolutely love to dance. I’m passionate about yoga, sound healing, spirituality, personal growth, and anything related to healing. New Age spirituality resonates with me the most. I also love talking about conspiracy theories , learning about energy cleansing, collecting mineral stones and crystals, and spending time in nature. The ocean is my happy place, and I can never say no to a beautiful sunset or a meaningful conversation. P.S. I get really bored with small talks, but once you open a door for meaningful conversation I am all ears 😉
