Hello, folks! I am an active and broad-minded lawyer and traveler from Ukraine. Originally, from I am from a small town in Western Ukraine, but, currently, I live and work in the capital of Ukraine, Kyiv. I used to live and study in Oslo, Norway, where I learned that the synergy with nature, work-life balance, and true friendship constitute simple but rater important life values.

When I have spare time, I am up to distract myself from daily routine and set off for adventures, meeting new people and exploring their cultures. I love to do things, which make me happy. Traveling is one of those things.

There are several rules and principles that I follow during travels:
1. I don't travel for statistics, i.e. just to count the countries and spots, I visited.
2. I don't collect things, I collect memories and emotions.
2. No package tours, minimal planned route - purely adventures and readiness to deal with challenges.
3. The rationale behind Couchsurfing lies in communication between people. This is the reason why I'm an active member of this community.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

To communicate, meet new people, make friends, share knowledge and experience (both professional and traveling).
