Hey there, I'm Elisa and currently doing an exchange semester in Zurich.
I’m kind of new on Couchsurfing… well, I guess that’s not true anymore. I created my profile back in 2018 but haven't used it that much since then.
Nevertheless I do have some Couchsurfing experience because a friend and I used CS while traveling together in Norway in 2019. In addition I managed to meet some new people while using the hangout function in summer 2021, which I spent in Berlin for an internship.
2023 I finally managed to host some wonderful guest in Aachen myself.

In Fall 2019 I started my studies in Aachen. I am studying speech language pathology and live in a shared flat in Aachen.
In my spare time I do a lot of sports, e.g. Bouldering, Volleyball, cycling, I enjoy running and I like doing yoga every now and then.
My last vacations in Italy and Switzerland mainly consisted of camping and hiking and being in the mountains. That's where I feel most comfortable, the place which I have longing for after being home for a long time. But I enjoy the sea and sunny weather as well. Even visiting cities is something I love doing; strolling around, exploring unfamiliar places and looking for cozy cafés.
I love spending time with family and friends either just hanging out and chatting or doing something actively and I am always up for a (board) games night.
I am very passionate about food - vegan food. I eat a plant-based diet for over four years now and I love it. Originally I started to reflect on my diet because I became interested in sustainability and environmental protection. Further topics that I care about a lot.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

On my previous travels I enjoyed meeting new people and learning about their stories a lot. I met great characters which happened to become good friends of mine. I would be thrilled to make similar experiences via CS.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

After my graduation from german highschool I went to south-east asia for about six months. It was a though but also wonderful time. I think it was the most amazing thing I've done so far. My personal highlight of that trip was the Annapurna Circuit Trek I did in the Himalayas in Nepal. I was trekking for two weeks with some terrific human beings I met there.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I could cook a tasty vegan meal, share some funny travel stories and teach some German if you are interested.
