Hi! My name is Dominique, Dominik or Dodo as u prefer. I am an art history student of mixed national background. Currently trying to find my path in art)
So far I have visited 28 countries from Eastern Europe to United States to Thailand to Japan!) I love learning about new cultures and documenting everything with my camera ( we can even arrange a photo shoot if you want) .
In general I would describe myself as an extraverted introvert - I love good parties but value comfort of everybody as the most important aspect of traveling)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I discovered it quite recently while being a host and the amount of great experience is nearly overwhelming!

Interests

I love Japan as my family was usually close to Japanese culture center in Kyiv , so as a kid I have been taught ikebana and tea ceremony and then traveled around Japan and learned even more)
On other hand thanks to my parents being Buddhist: meditation techniques were my lullaby 🙈
I am used to see the whole world as my home , traveling since the young age taught me how beautiful and different we all can be))))
