Greetings fellow techers in Europe!

I am going to go out on a limb here and see if any of you would be interested.. I will be traveling to Europe this December and staying until January sometime. It will definitely be on a budget, and was wondering if there are any members in the areas that I will be in. Perhaps we could get together and show me some areas of interest/things to do and possibly save me some hostel money and letting me crash. (Your generosity will be greatly appreciated and paid in due kind!)
Here are a few of the areas I will be visiting

Barcelona, Spain

Lyon, France

Zurich, Switzerland

Munich, Germany

Prague, Czech Republic

Berlin, Germany

Copenhagen, Denmark

Gotenburg, Sweden

Stockholm, Sweden

If you are near/around these places let me know! I would love to interact and be with locals and I greatly oppose touristy areas. Definitely dont consider myself a typical American either!

I live in the UK and you're not visiting there or at least haven't mentioned it, though I am a proud European member
