Elena:
I am a citizen of the world and don't believe in patriotism. I was born in Russia, but moved to Canada when I was 11 years old - yet I don't feel much attachment to either of these countries.
I believe that risk taking is the most vital thing anyone can do in life and that fear is the biggest impediment to society. I am a very non-conventional girl, and I'm characterized by those who know me by anything from "brave" to "crazy" (I prefer the former, personally :)

Jonathan:
I left the UK when I was 21 and have lived in various contries since then including Canada, Slovakia and Ukraine. In the meantime I have had the opportunity to travel a lot, inluding through the Middle East and South America.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Because we are finally breaking down our barriers of separation and instead of fearing each other, we open our homes to each other. This network is, in a way, an evolutionary step for humanity, and it's an honour and a privilege to be a part of that.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Elena:
Skydiving. It was the scariest, most insane experience, but very spiritual and meditative at the same time.

Jonathan:
I lived in a small town in Ukraine (for 3 years) and totally immersed myself in the culture.
