I’m Elisa and have a deep longing for a simple life, connected with nature and people, which I am chasing after and trying to implement where I am. In the past years I encountered a curiosity for the unknown and love what happens when I begin to trust people, places, moments. It’s interesting to me sensing that gentle transformation which happens by stepping into the new. So that’s kinda being on the road for me..and I love it! For now it’s good having a base for a bit longer again, right in the mountains in a beautiful city.

I like the idea of different dynamics and movement in my life and I learn about it by travelling..to go with the countinous and slow shift in cultures, faces, food, climate and religions.I like living in the present and still having the possibility to talk about every single thing I feel or have in mind, giving space for what ever is there. I like absorbing my surroundings, discovering, art, yoga, all kinds of dance and instruments everyone can play! I like talking about deep and light topics, cooking, laughing, creating, listening, using my hands, sharing, sleeping outsides, nature, literature. I want to leave some bright traces where I go and try to move aware and consciously, also in terms of the environment on this planet earth!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am here to see and feel that us human beings connects quite something no matter where we are in the world. There might be various expressions in values and cultural habits which obviously differ from each other and still I can feel close to you. I love how constructed ideas and belief systems we might have been raised up with, begin to shake a little and experience the process it reveals by looking behind.
Here on cs I have experienced open arms, found places to just be. To me it’s a space to support, exchange and learn from each other.
