MEET Yuliia Levchenko, the stunning high jumper aiming for gold at the 2024 Olympics.
Levchenko, 25, is an athlete with a serious travel bug and loves sharing it with her growing Instagram fanbase.
She often shares her experiences while training as she jets around the globe for her 404,000 Instagram followers.
Tenerife, Turkey, Italy and France are just some of the places she has visited recently.
And if there are any beaches on her travels, you can expect to see Levchenko lapping up the sun in a bikini.
But it is not all fun and games, with a serious training regime to stick to as she aims for gold at the Paris 2024 Olympic games.

It will be her third time representing Ukraine, having made her debut in 2016 before an impressive eighth-place finish in 2020.
Levchenko knows the taste of victory, having been the Under 23 European champion on two occasions and the two-time champion for her nation.
2023 has started well too, scoring a gold medal in the National Indoor Championships with a jump of 1.96 metres – though this is some way short of her personal best of 2.02m scored in 2019.
She also knows what it is like to be pipped at the end, having won silver at the World Championships in 2017 and at the European Indoor Championships in 2019.

Her aim in Paris will undoubtedly be to score a medal for her country as war continues to ravage it.
Levchenko has posted a number of times about the conflict between her nation and Russia.
A recent post saw her outside of a ruined apartment building and post a photo of a minefield warning sign.
While a post from March 1 last year saw her plead: “I just want to live in my country Ukraine! Without Russian soldiers and Putin.”
