Hi! I live in Kyiv - the capital of Ukraine. There're a lot of free young people, and I am one of those.
When I try to describe myself in one line, I get something like

I really like to LEARN and IMPROVE myself

People, culture, countries, universe
There are an infinite number of sources for this (books, films, music, etc.), but most of all I love live communication, interaction.

I love to experiment in art, create something new and creative. For me, it is like an opportunity to get to know myself better.

As a result, I have many wonderful friends. We often travel together and do some funny and even crazy things :)

And also I cannot forget about my companion. I have a wonderful wife, who's my best friend simultaneously. We've been together since school and we have reallyyy long and romantic story

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Communication with a local gives almost the brightest impressions of the country. Communication is life.

I regularly received many guests from different parts of the world at my home before, and every time we had some unforgettable situations.
We can exchange experiences, get to know the culture and mentality of each other's country at first hand.
It is extremely difficult to achieve this through popular tourist sources.
