About Me

Designer, art director. Crimean in Kyiv 🇺🇦

Liberal-centristic, but not a leftist or rightist, almost libertarian by political position.
Vegetarian, LGBTQ+ and feminism-friendly (but I respect different thoughts and opinions).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it is the best way to communicate with local people, to understand cultures and traditions. Also, you can make friends here and invite them to your hometown, to share your country's culture. CS is a damn good place to connect people around the world.

To be honest, for me as a citizen of quite a poor country, CS is a good way to save some money in very expensive places. But I've never thought of CS as an accommodation service. It's more as a way to get into a particular culture than just to have a guiding tour.
