I'm Lilia from Ukraine and I live in a beautiful touristic town Bayahibe. Right now I live with my friend from Ukraine. I would be happy to meet people from around the world and share hospitality and interesting time together. I'm also owner of two little kittens Tigrie and Darkie 🐈‍⬛ 🐈 So you need to be pet-friendly if you want to stay with me because you will share the room with them ☺️ and don't have fear to be stepped in the night

‼️IMPORTANT: I don’t accept requests from the people without references

P.S. If you're planning to bring me a little present, please don't bring the alcohol, because I don't drink 😅

*********
❗❗❗Important: If you send the request with anticipation, make sure that you will come at the dates you requested. If you want to change it last minute (two-one day before), I will not be able to host you, since it can destroy my plans and plans of other travelers.

I am NOT vaccinated, but I can host vaccinated and not vaccinated travelers though 💉 Let's respect the choice of everyone 💛

House rules 🏠

I really didn't want to set any rules for the guests but since I have had some surfers, which didn't know naturally how to behave being a guest, I had to write this:

- you can not smoke in the apartment (only vapes or alternatives which don't produce smoke), if you're a smoker please smoke outside;
- I don't accept people who have bad hygiene. IMPORTANT! To take shower at least once a day, to have clean clothes without bad smell!!
- don't enter the apartment having the sand on your feet or body, there is a hose outside next to the building where you can clean the feet;
- don't put music or TV loudly;
- you are welcome to use the kitchen if you need but please clean the dishes after yourself;
- leave the shoes next to the door - it can seem to be weird in DR to walked in the apartment without shoes but we do it and we maintain floor clean all the time;
- I like to share the food with the surfers and I like to cook, but it should be both sides. Also we can cook together. I'm not vegetarian but sometimes I eat vegetarian dishes;
- don't take my food without asking permission;
- if you need to use a washing machine, call me, don't use it alone;
- please turn of the fan and the water heater when you're not using it.

Moved to DR with very low budget in 2020, wasted almost all the money for the one way ticket

Visited abandoned cave

Found the way without the Google maps to go out of the forest in the night

Stayed for 5 days in the ship in the open sea at the Haitises natural park in Dominican Republic

Lehren, lernen, teilen

We can do some interesting things together, like cooking (I can cook for you some interesting and tasty Italian, Vedic or Asian dishes or we can cook together :) ), discussing interesting issues or going to the party :)
Recently I found out one more hobby for myself - photography (as a model). I have always loved B&W photography and this is my favourite style of photography. From time to time I do shootings with photographers just to have fun and spend good time. If you're a photograph and is in the mood to do a TFP-shooting with me I would be glad to pose for you and have much fun :)

I can also teach you some Ukrainian or Russian or to show how to cook Ukrainian food.
