Hi there, I'm Elena, and I come from a small island called Cyprus. 🇨🇾 🏖️

After three incredible years of attending university in Manchester, England, I wanted to learn and challenge myself more, so I went to Wrocław, Poland, for EVS (European Voluntary Service) 🇬🇧🇵🇱

After that, I went to Australia, where I spent 11 months exploring W.A., Melbourne, Sydney, and the East Coast up to Cairns/ Cape Tribulation. 🇦🇺🦘

I have also spent two years in Hangzhou, China, where I taught English to children and explored the country. 🐼🇨🇳

After leaving China, I spent two years in Europe, where I travelled, studied, and worked. 🌍🇪🇸

Now I'm back in Hangzhou, working as a Montessori teacher. I'm eager to meet locals and expats, understand the culture, and continue to explore the country. 🏞️

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I'm interested in meeting new friends and learning about different cultures.
