Hey! My name is Nick and I am currently looking for locals who would be able to offer me a place to stay. I want to learn about your cultures, food, and views on the world. Also would love to do some language exchange! I am currently living in Kyiv where I work as a videojournalist documenting the War in Ukraine. Here is a link to my Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iamnickallard/

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I want to get a truly authentic experience to every new country I travel to. I want to see how locals live, think, and most importantly…eat! I feel that sometimes that experience has been difficult to obtain staying in normal hostels. Want to try something new!

One Amazing Thing I've Done
Sold everything I owned and used all the profits from my business sale to move to Ukraine and make a documentary about the war. Spent two weeks in the middle of the Amazon jungle drinking ayahuasca with the local Shapibo tribe. Snorkeled with Sea Turtles, Marine Iguanas, and Sea Lions off the coast of the Galapagos Islands.
