Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I often travel alone and I think a Couchsurfing is a nice place to connect with locals and spend a nice time together. To meet with someone who lives in the city that I attend for the first time reveals interesting scenes of the city and the culture, that I won't be able to see on my own. So excited to try Couchsurfing!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can tell you something interesting about art and animation, as well as about my culture (Ukraine).
I can host an art session for you.
I would be happy to take a long walk around your city and have an interesting conversation. If there is a river, sea or lake neadby I'll be hapy to go and swim together.
I can cook breakfast or dinner for you, and be a companion in your morning yoga or sports activities.
I would also be happy to help you (and myself) practice English.
Additionally, I can provide a small consultation regarding the visual communication of your business or personal brand, as I worked a lot as an art director on brand identity projects.
