About Me

I was born and most of my life have lived in Ukraine (or rather the whole) quite fun and exciting life. I am temporarily in Canada, we'll how long. I love life and I to be not sad about anything and without reason. For me it is wasting time, especially we do not have to much of it ;-).
My little credo: "There is no need to judge anyone, we are all different. Joy is available to everyone regardless of status and condition of anything..." Why at all, because many are trying to impose their views ... This is wrong. We are all different, and we live in our own way. I like very much travelling, even for a day or two. Changing our daylife picture is most important thing that can give happiness.
I have been travelling in Ukraine since I was born. It's a beautiful and big country. My advise to everyone is visiting of the western part of Ukraine - the people are very unusual, they are friendly and very kind). Unfortunately, now is not the safest time for it, but after this war I hope you can enjoy my country and our people's welcoming.
I love sports such as swimming, volleyball playing chess (brain sport), volleyball, soccer, and a lot of interesting things. I am handyman, that's why I like to make and do everything that I can try. Also I do not smoke and do not drink alcohol. For me this is not necessary for health, and there are things in life more interesting ;-) Music for me - it's the memories associated with each song separately) I think a person who loves music will understand me :))

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Kindness.
This one is a beautiful thing that I have and I am trying to share it with others. Things do not always meet good for good, but to do good deeds, giving gifts is much more pleasant than to receive. After all, it's nice to see the happy faces of people. Let's be happy and open for everyone.

Teach, Learn, Share

Ready to teach Ukrainian language, cooking Ukrainian dishes, to share life experiences. It is good to know the Ukrainian language, I can pull up the skills and grammar :) I also speak Polish fluently and if you are going to Poland soon, I can teach you few simple words that you will need there.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share accommodation in Warsaw (Poland) for your needs, if you need it. It is a good place to start exploring Europe and cousine of Poland (pierogi and nalisniki).
