Gender Studies student from Lund, Sweden. Originally from Ukraine. I looove to travel and meet new people.

Back in Ukraine, I was a LGBTQI+ right activist and even dedicated my bachelor thesis to this topic. Also my interests include photography (especially old Soviet film cameras), contemporary art, underground parties and so on.

Probably, my instagram will tell you more about my life:) Instagram.com/yankovska.ya

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m here, because I love traveling. My main interest in exploring new countries and cultures is contrculture as itself. It is smth that no guide books gonna tell you about. That’s why I prefer to get in touch with locals, explore, how they live in particular city, where are they partying and in what way resist to dominant culture. That’s always much more fun, that sterile hostels conditions.
