Hi! I'm Irina — originally from Siberia, now living in Germany in Neu-Ulm. I’m into cities, street life, public spaces, urban cycling and spontaneous deep talks.

I love discovering new places through small details — a weird bench, a street mural, a friendly local café. Sometimes I write about it in my Telegram channel or give casual city tours.

I'm a quiet extrovert (yes, that exists), easy to get along with, curious, and always up for meaningful conversations, fresh croissants and a good story.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I truly believe that some of the best parts of travel happen between official attractions — over shared dinners, random conversations and long walks with people who live the city.

I’m not here just for free accommodation, I’m here for human connection — and I’m always happy to offer the same when possible.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories, simple (but tasty) recipes, emotional support, good tea, playlist suggestions, random fun facts.
I’m happy to help around, join for a walk, cook together, have a cozy dinner or just respect your qui
