CURRENT MISSION

more joy, more communication, more sharing

ABOUT ME

I'm interested in things that bring joy: music and literature, talking with friends, hiking in the mountains and so on. I was born in Kharkov, Ukraine, lived in Munich, Germany, and now share my life between Graz and Salzburg, Austria.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like Couchsurfing very much, it's a good possibility to meet new people, feel at home in an other city and share something with other people. Basically I'm sometimes too busy and have many guests that are my friends (for example, from my home country or from Munich, where I lived). But when I have time, I like guests very much!
