Hi!
My name is Iryna, I’m 27 years old, originally from Dnipro, Ukraine, but currently living in Germany, Osnabrück.
I love meeting new people, exchanging cultural experiences, and learning about the traditions of different countries. For me, it’s important to feel the diversity of cultures because I believe each one has its own uniqueness, and Ukrainian culture is no exception. It’s incredibly rich and fascinating, and I’m always happy to share its beauty with others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m on CouchSurfing because I believe the best way to experience a new place is by connecting with local people. I want to meet people from different cultures, share experiences, and learn from each other. For me, CouchSurfing is about building friendships and deepening my understanding of the world through personal connections.

Interests

My main interests include history, literature, and photography. I enjoy exploring new cities, learning about their past, and capturing moments through my camera. I also love reading, especially books about different cultures, and going for long walks or visiting museums. Additionally, I’m passionate about languages and always open to learning something new.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music from different cultures, but Ukrainian folk music holds a special place in my heart. I can sing traditional Ukrainian songs and would love to share them with you! I also enjoy a variety of genres from classical to indie rock. In terms of movies, I’m a fan of historical dramas and films based on true stories. I also enjoy foreign films as they give me a chance to experience new perspectives and cultures. When it comes to books, my favorites often fall under historical fiction, adventure stories, and philosophical works.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most amazing experiences I had was traveling through Ukraine and exploring its hidden gems, from the beautiful Carpathian Mountains to the quiet villages where people still live by ancient traditions. I took part in a local folk festival and was able to learn about the unique customs that make Ukrainian culture so rich. It was a life-changing journey that deepened my love for my homeland and its history.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some Ukrainian words and phrases, or even help you with singing Ukrainian songs! I also enjoy discussing literature, history, and culture. I love learning new languages, so I’m always happy to pick up a few words in any language. I’m also eager to learn about your culture, traditions, and any cool facts you can share with me. I believe that sharing stories and experiences is one of the best ways to connect. I can share the beauty of Ukrainian culture, tell you about local customs, or simply share a cup of tea and a good conversation.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer you a glimpse into Ukrainian culture, whether it’s through music, literature, or interesting stories from my travels. I’m also happy to help with local recommendations, share a home-cooked Ukrainian meal, or simply offer some great conversation. I love learning from others, so I’m always excited to exchange ideas and experiences.
