Description

Hi!
I'm from Ukraine and have been travelling for the past 7 months due to the ongoing conflict. Well, I’ve dreamed of a big journey since I was 19 and experiencing countries by conversing with the locals mesmerised me ever since .
The more I live , the more I understand that there are some things in life that you just have to accept the way they are.
Due to the our common miseries that we together had faced in recent years and the ongoing one in Ukraine,I didn’t really get the chance to travel much , now it seems more like a pipe dream really, so I experience things vicariously through books ,conversations and other arts.

More details about my language interests
I have intertwined my life with the English language ever since I was 16, I believe at this point I have a solid understanding of both grammar and the nuances of the lexicon. I have completed 120 hour TEFL certification and studied English linguistics for 6 years I'm really interested in learning Spanish, I find this language enveloping: it opens the door to a huge multi-cultural world that you've never known beforehand and I sincerely hope that one day I'll reach fluency.
