Hi there! I am Iryna, born and grew up in a small town in Western Ukraine. I am have a degree in IT and Business Analytics from Ukrainian Catholic University in Lviv. Also, I’m working as a product analyst.

I love mountain hiking and eating lemons. I adore music. I really enjoy travelling on my own, and being alone in general. But talking to people is my other passion - the only challenge is to find good people to talk to.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I gained a lot of new experience travelling around Ukraine and sharing thoughts with my compateriots.
I am learning even more things travelling abroad.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I bathed in the Atlantic Ocean while other people were walking along the beach and hiding from the rain under umbrellas. It was England, and yes, it was a little bit cold.

After that I did it one more time, in France.

And skydived. This time in Ukraine.
