I am Elena, 23 years old and live in Berlin, where I've been studying Human Geography for a few years now. Generally I am interested in a lot of different things, like music, reading, climbing, inline-skating, cinema, festivals or just spending time with my friends. Recently I've also been getting more involved in social and environmental justice movements and would love to do that more. Besides that I really enjoy traveling and getting to know new people and places.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After finishing high school I went on a one year trip with two of my friends, where I traveled to Southeastasia only by trains and buses and organized an environmental project about water justice. And last year I've been studying in the south of France, by Marseille for a few months. I really enjoyed that as I met lots of nice people, spent time on the seaside and could freshen up my french a bit :)
