Hello world, my name is Helen, 21 year old ukranian girl. I'm originally from Kiev. Love my city a lot, so I'm always ready to show the best of it. Expirienced hithhiker, fire juggler.

My english speaking skills are pretty poor, although it's enough to understand me :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here to be in touch with people from all over the world, who are willing to share their shelters and explore other countries =)

Right now I cannot be a full host, 'cause a live with my father and things get a little bit tricky here. But I hope to rent my own place as soon as possible and then I will be open totally for new friends ;)

Interests

Classical massage, acupressure. Practicing yoga and qigong. Flow arts. Djembe, darbuka.

What I Can Share with Hosts

First of all, I am a clean freak ;) I cannot stand dirty dishes in the sink, it drives me crazy, so certainly I'll help with the housework.

Cooking skills — middle level. I'm not Jamie Oliver, but I can make true ukranian borsh!

Also I can juggle (very useful if there are some naughty children around).

Countries I’ve Visited
