My name is Elias and I am a 23- year old traveler from Germany!!

Currently living in Egypt with my girlfriend for the year. We have an apartment in Dahab close to the center with an extra bedroom, so feel free to pop by on your trip through Egypt. We are available from the 22nd of April onwards!

Last year I started travelling the world with my best friend André! We started in Canada and made it all the way to Costa Rica. From Mexico we sailed along the coast of the Pacific and made it to Costa Rica — an unforgettable experience.

After a short break, I‘m back travelling! This time I am with my partner Nancy and we are going all the way in the Middle East. After visiting Palestine, we are planning to explore Egypt along the Nile for the next 30 days!

If Couchsurfing taught me anything over the last two years, then that this platform is a gift to anyone who loves backpacking. I‘ve met some really amazing characters on here and what amazed me most about every single on was, that no one seemed ordinary in the slightest. Everyone was special and interesting in their own way and I‘m excited to meet many more people like that!

Thank you for reading through my patchwork of CS descriptions! If you have made it this far, please note that I would like to know that you looked at my profile when sending a text! Don‘t worry, I know how it is texting a number of hosts trying to find a place to stay at, but please take at least a minute to engage with me :D goes a long way!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To experience places through the eyes of locals, meeting new people! Trust me, you are more interesting than your spare mattress!
