I'm Elena! I'm from Mexico. I study my degree in translation and interpreting.

I'm an enthusiastic and super happy person, I love cinema and photography, well, arts in general.

Traveling has opened my eyes in so many ways, I just wanna be able to keep discovering, share and get to know other cultures, as well as showing my beautiful Mexico to foreigners.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's one of the best ways to discover a place and its people, I think it's the best way to have an authentic interaction with locals and certainly a great way to make friends all over the world!
