I come from Ukraine but moved to Bulgaria with my family 8 years ago.

I love travelling and each year I try to visit new countries.

Photography is my passion, it's something that has been inspiring me for more than a decade now. I've started as a child and a family photographer, but recently I decided to try shooting something new - emotional portraits, couples, conceptual photography.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a portrait photographer, and I'm looking for a collaboration with attractive girls or men with extraordinary appearance ( you don't have to be a model !) and handsome couples (gay couples as well!) who are madly in love, whether you are locals or tourists - on a TFP basis ( I will shoot for free and will send you the pictures afterwards. You only have to sign a model release for me). Anyone interested, please leave me a message.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I started jogging in the January, 2019. First I could hardly run 3,5 km, but with every week I would run a little more, and in May 2010 I ran my first 10 km marathon! I continue exercising and hope to do longer distance runs in future.
