Hi my name is Yana, I’m at 18 years old and live in Spokane WA. I love traveling, experiencing new cultures and adventures. I’m currently studying to become a nurse and between my studies I explore whenever I can. Some of my favorite hobbies include snowboarding, climbing (& ice-climbing!), hiking, running, weightlifting, and kayaking. My family is actually from Ukraine and we have a large Slavic community here in Spokane!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel and want to meet locals in the areas I go, to experience the culture, food, and language ❤️
