About Me
’m Taras from Ukraine, now living in Istanbul. I work as an event host and voice artist, and I’m developing my own jewelry brand called Tobi Mozhna (“You’re allowed to”).
I love deep conversations, humor, beautiful design, and moments that feel real. I enjoy cooking and can make you a traditional Ukrainian borscht — my favorite way to share a piece of home.
Philosophy:
Freedom starts when you allow yourself to be who you are.
Interests:
Art, psychology, meaningful talks, urban walks, and music.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love real human connection. I enjoy meeting people from different cultures, sharing stories, cooking together, and seeing a city through local eyes.
Local people make every trip unforgettable — they turn travel into something real and personal. I’m grateful for that kind of experience.
