Hey everyone, I´m Elli.
During my gap year after finishing school, I developed my interest for cultures, languages and people from all over the world.
Therefore, I see couchsurfing as a chance to get to know new people, to have some nice conversations and to experience the non-touristic parts of this planet.

I look forward to meeting you soon:)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Lots of good and interesting conversation with people who might have grown up in a very different environment as your own.
You have the opportunity to show/ see all the "secret", non-touristic and not overcrowded spots of a place:)
I feel like couchsurfing people in general like giving and are very open minded and generous.
I think nowadays we barely get in contact with strangers, so couchsurfing is a possibility for me to leave my comfort zone and to realise how fast "strangers" can become friends.
