About me

About me
I’m Viktoriia, an international student from Ukraine, currently studying and living in the US. I’ve lived in a few different countries, and travel has always been a big part of my life. I love exploring new places, learning about different cultures, and finding hidden spots wherever I go. I’m into sports, fashion, discoveries, and anything that keeps me active and curious. Always up for good conversations, spontaneous adventures, and of course, great food along the way.

About me
✨ Hey there! I’m B — originally from the Jersey Shore, but my heart lives in Emerald Isle & Swansboro, NC. I’m based in Raleigh now, but I’ll take any excuse to head to the coast (and I will convince you to come with). I give the best tours — think beach bars, local gems, and hidden sandbar stops. I work in real estate and love all things music, art, design, and food — basically anything that feeds the soul or sparks good conversation. I haven’t traveled much. I get nervous on planes but I’m working on conquering that fear. My last trip to Orlando was great. I got divorced a few years ago and didn’t realize how codependent and anxious I was in that relationship. It’s been a rough few years but I’m strong. I’m loving this stage of my life and being challenged in such a way has brought me a new sense of self and adventure—- I think I always had that— it was just stifled for a very long time. I embrace my silly side and enjoy meeting new people. I’ve never been outside the USA. Working on that! 41 isn’t too old to start life again, right? 🤗 Here to meet like-minded women who want to travel solo or together, share Airbnbs, host or be hosted, or just link up for a spontaneous adventure. Let’s swap stories, playlists, and maybe a few wild ideas. 🌍✨

Is Raleigh safe for women?
Nhi
I don’t feel exceptionally unsafe in Raleigh than other mid-size cities. Obviously as a girl/woman, it is always good to practice safe travels. Just like any city, don’t go to the sketchy parts and you will be straight.
