Yo, what's up, folks? Name's Sophie, straight outta Ukraine.
I'm a part tattoo master, part barista as long as work in IT:)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I recently got this rad opportunity to travel, so l'm starting my little adventure. It's like a dream come true, and I can't wait to explore new places and soak up different experiences. Life's too short to let it pass us by, right?

Interests

I'm totally obsessed with Japanese and Chinese culture, it's like a whole new world. When I'm not busy inking(tattooing) or shooting, you can find me chilling with a good book or binging on some films. I'm always down for a good time, love sippin' on some sour beer, and indulging in a ton of sweet treats. I love hiking. Especially in Ukraine, for some reason you feel the most unity with nature in your native land...

Music, Movies, and Books

I used to write here about my favorite books and movies, but over time there were too many of them. I am interested in everything that is not clear to me at first. I will gradually break everything down into small pieces and try to find logical connections or, on the contrary, accept it intuitively. I still don't understand many contexts, so I try to learn as much as I can about everything.
However, there are things that give me peace of mind, such as re-reading biographies of Andy Warhol or Alma Mahler, watching films by Dogme 95

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm also a student. Yep, I'm hitting the books at university, pursuing my passion for English and French literature. I am interested in all art. Now I am fond of film photography and experimenting with portraits.

Teach, Learn, Share

For the last 3 years I have spent a lot of time researching Ukrainian culture in the context of the world, so I can tell you a little bit about how everything happened from the inside of the historical context. I am also a good cook 🙌😌
