About Me

Well, I'm a simple girl, named Veronika. Somebody told me, that I'm an easy-going and sociable person :) I love photography, what is my hobby, work and passion, so I dream to travel all around the world, make many beautiful photos, meet interesting people and have fun.
Usually, I'm traveling with my husband Alex, who is a very nice and interesting person too, otherwise, I would not marry him)))) For now, we have discovered 16 countries, and we are definitely bitten by a travel bug, so it's just the beginning)

When we are traveling, we really love wandering around, so we usually walking from morning till night with stops in interesting places to eat something tasty or drink coffee. According to my gadget, we usually are passing 15-20 km per day, therefore, we understand if you don't want to run around town with us all the time, but just show us your favorite places or hang out somewhere. And if you want to spend time at home, we can cook some Ukrainian food or some of these recipes, we picked up during our trips, and talk or play board games.

If you're going to Kyiv, I can show you my city with different interesting places, where locals spend their free time. But you should be ready, that I'll try to show you many of them, so please wear comfortable shoes))
Also, I can help with any tips (call cheap taxi or help with public transport, give advice where to go for food, drink, party etc.), just ask:) or we can go somewhere to hang out together)

PHILOSOPHY

Live as if you'd drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It's more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories. (Ray Bradbury - Fahrenheit 451)
Better than mountains may be only the mountains, which you haven't climbed yet. (V. Vysotsky - Farewell to Mountains)
My country is the world and my religion is to do good.(q)
