About Me

SUPPORT UKRAINE!
SUPPORT UKRAINIAN ARMY!
U CAN DONATE TO „COME BACK ALIVE FOUNDATION“
(unfortunately it’s time when kindness should be able to protect itself and when peace and pacifism need weapons..)
***
THIS IS NOT A DATING APP, NOT FOR HOOKUPS, NOT FOR FWB
yes, grown up people can have sympathies and it’s important to use consent language, be respectful and then people can decide and agree or disagree (about dating or whatever) but this is not the intention of this app
so
DON‘T TOUCH ME (massage or any kind of touch needs a permission!), DON‘T MASTURBATE IN MY ROOM. DON’T SUGGEST TO DATE OR WHATEVER AFTER A SHORT MEETING. IF U DO ANY INAPPROPRIATE THING I WILL REPORT U TO COUCHSURFING (minimum) AND (probably) TO POLICE
***
якщо ви з України (та й не тільки:) та можу бути для вас в нагоді, то напишіть. я знаю англійську, німецьку тільки вивчаю, поки рівень B1 приблизно. але буду рада допомогти, чим зможу!
***
i like to dance and climb everywhere i can
***
There are no key words in the profile, u can write short message even without my name in it :) but for hosting it’s better if u have references and your stay is about interaction, not coming and ignoring my existence
***
If I need a host and even wrote a short message or didn’t follow some suggestions of some key words in my message - oh, i would really like no negative reaction there.. travelling itself can be pretty exhausting. Would be nice to get even a short message explaining why u’re not able to host.
Also I know there are situations with lacking of time, so even later some short note might be nice, we can stay in touch

Couchsurfing for me is about finding people with who we can so to say vibe, probably stay in touch or at least share nice talks, meals, adventures
***
At the moment I stay in Halle Saale. Would be happy to meet here nice people, create music together, walk, ride bicycles, visit events and so on. Also would be happy if somebody wants to visit me here)

If u’re from Ukraine and I can help u in some way - please write me. I don’t speak German well yet (B1 something) but probably I can host u or meet or
***
My journey plans which are not fixed yet:

I consider hitchhiking through Europe to realise my dreams (see south Italy, Greece, Norway) but never travelled far alone (I mean hitchhiking or on bicycle). So looking for a good cool buddy to join. I have some time to think and decide and there’s no hurry (but there are few things I’d better do first)

I would like to take guitar (maybe even some extra equipment but it might be heavy) and try to earn money this way for food etc and if possible to support Ukraine, Ukrainian army. Probably take a tent or even travel on bicycle (but have to buy one first)

Down is some long list with the views of mine and I’m looking for people with similar ideas

I don’t believe in conspiracy theories (create them in my head sometimes but:), I don’t support old 3 colours russian flag (it’s the symbol of killing), I support vaccination (generally), evidence based medicine; it’s russia who invaded Ukraine and better forget “NATO pushing russia..” here; I’m against homophobia, racism; soviet union was dictatorship who killed and imprisoned people with different position for their different from the party opinion. Honestly the list is long. Also I don’t care about people’s diet (I try to be vegan. I mean I won’t be telling people that they should be vegetarians or vegans (though I don’t like that animals are being killed..)). I don’t appreciate too much apolitical people (because afterwards politics is about everything and will knock the doors of apolitical people too). Right of public protest against corrupted government or fucked police (other bad things) - is a normal thing. Earth is not flat (let’s prove this;). Feminism is ok (though I wouldn’t agree with each feminist which is logical). Abortion is a women’s right. I don’t care about fashion and clothes much (I like when it fits my tastes but I’m totally fine with holes and some ketchup on the t-shirt). Interested in science (but don’t know much..) If we don’t share common views on these topics - i’m not sure there’s any argumentation that can change my opinion there. I value flexibility and open-mindedness and broader perspective on things. I really enjoy company of people who think, have independent and fresh opinions. Being open to change an opinion is a good sign too

I should also tell that I am having some health issues, pains which make me periodically not super cheerful at least

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

i like when people are being humanistic, open and helping each other. that’s who i’m trying to be and wanna chill with)

mostly i can host guyz (i mean here girls too) who are respectful, lgbt-friendly and not fanatical believers of some religion

having a sleeping bag might be better, or there’s an option to sleep together on the sofa

if u wanna meet or travel together - wriiiite mee!!!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

i gave a paper crown to one woman and that was amazing
/
i was trying to escape from policemen twice (coz i did nothing)
/
somebody (i guess it was the neighbour.. and it’s bout the apartment where we were living) made a shot at my neighbour’s window, and me and Max went to the floor where this person probably lives to discover (i don’t know what exactly to discover. but this floor looked creepy..)
/
i made i guess a bit illegal stuff - some street activism in Odesa, and it was a bit scary)
/
also i jumped a lot into the sea and climbed over lots of fences) went to catacombs with friends

Teach, Learn, Share
