Karina, 28

Karina is a 28-year-old blonde masseuse based in Pechersk, Kiev, and one of the names guests ask for by heart. At 171 cm she has an easy, unhurried presence, and she reads the mood of a guest before a single word is said.

Her home base is Dream (Pechersk), one of the city’s VIP rooms, where she does everything from a gentle classic to a full body-to-body slide. A session starts around $1600 and is always private and discreet — no rush, no small talk you didn’t ask for.
