About Me

I love languages and meeting new people. I also love traveling and try to make it a priority to see as many new places as possible.I love just hanging out and talking, or going out and seeing things in town.

I'm a young economics and political science student traveling around the world. Very interested in learning about new cultures and exploring new parts of our planet.
I love watching sitcoms, documentaries and biographies and the same news over and over again. If I hear some music that I like, I listen to it on repeat a thousand times or until I hate it (whichever happens earlier).
I move through hobbies pretty fast. I've gone through many hobbies that I end up being mediocre at some of them. My constant ones for the last couple of years have been photography, blogging, guitar and collecting coins. Almost everyday I ride my bike. Also I try myself in information technologies field. Now I'm trying to study Java programming language and pretty excited about it.
I like politics, everyday I read news. And also trying to understand political processes all over he world.
I love history and now I learn about American one which is very interesting for me!
I can be incredibly geeky and talk about technology, computers, SciFi and video games for hours on end. I can watch History channel for hours without changing the channel.
My perfect travel plans include a couple of museums, some local food, a lot of time at the lake or in the mountains, and at least one view from a high place.

PHILOSOPHY

To live life for iprections and to make something good for people all over the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the idea of meeting new people and sharing spaces inside of a community that believes in helping others. I think this is a great opportunity to meet potential new friends, network with others and travel! This site and the people on it make it so much easier to travel.

Moreover I think that you can only get to really know a city if you see by the eyes of a local. I would also like to allow other people to visit Ukraine (I have an apartment in Poltava), and get the best impression of our people.

Interests

Books (all kinds, like fantacy). Music (especially indi). Traveling ( to find something new about our planet and people on that). History (to understand how humankind was developing and which did most influence for that).

In both cases there are separate rooms for guests with comfortable beds.
