Hey I’m Elena and I live in Rome, Italy. I love to travel mostly because I think life’s making new experiences, and get to know something we didn’t know before. Currently studying in art school and music school in Rome, planning on going to live on my own. I love photography, reading, singing and playing instruments, drawing sometimes and have fun. I also am a great cook! I learned from my mom all the Italian classic food, but I like to try and invent new recipes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I look forward to visiting Europe on my own this summer. I’m gonna be the typical backpacker I guess! I wanna find my true self and meet new people, and also stay cheap.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skinny dipping in the sea in October, sang in the streets, crowdsurfed at concerts, and many other little things.
