Hello,

My boyfriend Axel and I (Elisa) are starting a trip to Europe for a few months in April 2024. Forget the plane, we're taking the time to discover a few European countries, travelling with more eco-frendly modes of transport.
Our motto: discover new landscapes, observe nature and meet new people!

We work in environmental protection in France, and are passionate about forests.
Axel is a big fan of birdwatching and I love to draw, particularly landscapes, animals and plants.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We have starting our trip in Scotland for two months from April to June, and it was amazing. Now, we want to discover Spain much more and we arrive in País Vasco for the beginning of July. On the advice of our friends, we signed up with couchsurfing for the first time on this trip.

We'll be sleeping mainly in tent, and we hope to be able to stop off a few times at people's homes to spend a night in the house and, above all, meet new people. We'll be delighted to share convivial moments, cook together, go out for a drink and develop our trip according to our hosts' recommendations!
