Hi gays! Nice to meet you here ☺️
My name is Yana, I’m 22 years old.
I was born in Russia, Siberia, but when I was 15 years old I moved to Israel alone and lived for 4 years at the boarding school.
I served in the army for two years and soon I start to study Graphic Design and wish to do a trip before college after a year of lockdowns 🤪
I have been working like a licensed child counselor for 2 years now, and also I’m work in the bar because I like the vibes here and meet new cool people!
Also I love animals very much and volunteer it the animals’ shelter 🐕❤️🐈
My favorite animal is turtle, I have 2 🐢

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that’s the most great way to get to know the country culture is to meet with the locals.
Also in a very young age I made a huge change in my life and moved to another country, because of it I faced with a lot of cultures from all over the world and it was a really great experience for me.
I wish to get to know a lot of different people around the world and got to learn about deferent cultures.

Interests

My real passion is Art!!!
I studied ceramics for 5 years when I was a child and teen.
I also have been drawing for my whole life and still enjoy to do it on my free time, I also can make a really universal candles(and maybe I can even make one for you😊)
I enjoy camping and hiking, so in every country that I visit I do foot tracks!
When I visit my birth town in Russia I always go on hiking on local mountains as lakes. In Israel I did a lot of trips on my motorcycle to the north of the country and visited small villages, and visited a lot of places all over the country like: the Dead Sea, Desert, the Read Sea and etc. My ideal weekend is watching sunset on the beach🌅
