Hello!! I am currently backpacking through Western Europe and would love to have the opportunity to meet locals in each of the cities I’m staying in, much more fun to see the city through a locals eyes and meet friends!

I have been to Denmark, Germany, Albania, Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, Poland and onto (hopefully)Prague and Belgium.

I am new to couch surfing, one of my friends recommended the app and I think it’s an amazing platform to get a better understanding of how it is to live in each of the amazing cities.

Because I’m new here I’m happy to share my Instagram! It’s @alina_babchanik

A little about me: I was born and raised in Seattle, Washington, USA, both of my parents are Ukrainian and settled in Seattle 30 years ago. I save up all my money to travel, I really don’t know what better thing to spend it on! When I’m not working I enjoy running, rock climbing, reading, drawing, photography, playing guitar and yoga! (Also obviously spending time hiking in the mountains and laying on the beach)

I am very outgoing and talkative, I love to laugh and having meaningful conversations. Learning about others is really a passion of mine so I am so grateful to be here in Europe and would love to exchange stories, experiences and a drink :)

If you’re close by where I’m traveling, please let me know, we can explore a bit together!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing has gifted me some of the most beautiful experiences I wouldn’t have otherwise imagined. I love meeting new people from each country and integrating myself with the way of life! It’s been so so so fun!

I hope to host people from other countries back home in Seattle :)
