Hi! I’m an English teacher who loves exploring new places, meeting people from different backgrounds, and sharing stories. Singing is my passion—I often find myself humming a tune or discovering new music. I also enjoy reading, whether it’s a novel, an interesting article, or something to help me learn a new language.

I love traveling and getting to know different cultures, but my heart always belongs to my home country. I’d be happy to share stories about Ukraine, its traditions, and, of course, some must-try foods!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that travelling isn’t just about visiting places; it’s about connecting with people. Couchsurfing is a great way to meet locals, exchange experiences, and see the world from a different perspective.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had the opportunity to study abroad in Wrocław as part of an Erasmus program. It was an unforgettable experience—I met incredible people, explored a new culture, and grew both personally and professionally. Living in a different country taught me adaptability, independence, and the beauty of stepping outside my comfort zone.

Teach, Learn, Share

✨ Teach: I can help with English or Ukrainian, whether it's grammar, pronunciation, or just casual conversation. I also love sharing insights about my country—its culture, traditions, and unique places to visit. And if you enjoy singing, we could even practice some songs together!

📚 Learn: I'm always eager to learn about different cultures, languages, and perspectives. Whether it's a new phrase in another language, a local tradition, or a favorite book recommendation, I'm happy to expand my horizons.

🤝 Share: I can share travel stories, music recommendations, and a good conversation over coffee. If you're interested in Ukrainian culture, I’d love to introduce you to its rich history, music, and delicious food!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love good conversations, whether about travel, books, music, or languages. I can share stories about my experiences abroad and introduce you to Ukrainian culture, from traditions to must-try dishes. If you're learning English or Ukrainian, I’d be happy to help with that too!

If you enjoy music, we could sing together or exchange favorite songs. And of course, I always appreciate a friendly chat over a cup of coffee or tea. 😊
