Hello,
My name is Elena. I’m 20 years old and currently traveling in south east asia.
Since I finished school I traveled with my bicycle and tent through Norway and backpacked in Portugal after walking the Camino Português from Porto to Santiago de Compostela.
Currently I am traveling in Thailand and my plan is to go to the south of Thailand next.
I would like to get in contact with different people and learn about their travel stories and culture.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe Couchsurfing is a nice way to learn more about culture an meet people who are from the country or living there when you visit a new country.

Interests

I like to bake and cook.
At home I cycle a lot.
Sometimes I work in the garden and I like to spend time with my family.
I enjoy being outdoors and to watch sunsets and every now and then also sunrises.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite author is Julie Kagawa and I listen to all kinds of music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I’ve cycled from Oslo to the Nordkap and experienced amazing hospitality.
This year in May I hiked the Annapurna Circuit in Nepal and met amazing people on the way.

Teach, Learn, Share

I’ve worked at a gym as a trainer with children for some time and enjoy playing volleyball.
When I cook, I like to try new recipes and I also enjoy baking. I like sharing that with other people.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can talk about my experiences while biking through Norway and what I experienced on my other travels. And we could learn about each others culture a little bit more.
It would also be nice to maybe cook something together when it fits into the schedule.
