Hey hey, I’m Elena. I’m 22 years old and I live in Skopje, North Macedonia. I am currently pursuing a degree in biotechnology and food engineering so that doesn’t leave me with enough time to do what I really love - which is to TRAVEL. I’ve had the privilege to visit many places at a young age through Erasmus+ projects and I’m constantly looking out for new opportunities through workaway and worldpackers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to show people around Skopje and take them to see hidden gems, try traditional food and drinks and get to know them and their culture

Music, Movies, and Books

I love movies, but I have trouble watching any new ones (stupid I know haha) I just usually rewatch the same 20 comfort movies like: mamma mia (even though I dislike musicals), about time, the secret life of Walter Mitty, good will hunting
I like most music, though I’m not a big fan of techno and metal. I mostly listen to chill/beachy music. Some of my favourite artists according to Spotify are: Jack Johnson, Mac DeMarco, Julio Iglesias, João Gilberto, ABBA, Hozier, TV girl.
I’ve recently read Norwegian wood and I am currently reading The sun also rises.
