Hello! My name is Elisha and I am a British traveller, currently in Mexico. I have been travelling here for nearly four months now. I love nature, music, dancing, the feeling of adrenaline, meeting new people and seeing new sights. I’m an artist, so if you like painting or getting creative i would love to meet you! I would be very grateful to anyone willing to let me stay in their home, and I’d do my best to make sure you enjoy the experience as well as myself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m currently travelling Mexico so I am looking to experience more authentic travel by meeting locals in the areas I’m in.

Interests

I enjoy art, especially abstract art as I like how it has no control and breaks the ideals of what something should necessarily look like. I like getting tattoos, visiting new places, nice scenery and views like beaches and fields. Love meeting new people and experiencing as many new exciting things as possible! I also enjoy eating good food of course!

Music, Movies, and Books

I’m an all-rounder for music, what I listen to depends on the sort of mood I’m in, however I specifically love psytrance and drum and bass - I’m a raver for sure! I love festivals and raves and the feeling of freedom you get when you’re dancing in a huge crowd of people on the same vibe as you.

Used to be a complete and utter bookworm when I was younger, have read hundreds of books in the past. Stopped reading so much in the past few years so getting back into it slowly however I have been reading lots of interesting neuroscience based books recently.

Likewise with music, I can enjoy most genres of movies, depending on the mood I’m in. Love a ghosty horror film, chic-flic, comedy and psychological thrillers most can grab my interest. Shutter island is one of my all time favourites!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2018 I took part in a tandem skydive to raise money and awareness for Cancer Research in honour of my Nanny. I started creating wire wrapped crystal necklaces which I sold to fundraise, so through doing that and a few other fundraising events I managed to raise £515 within a couple months! The skydive itself was the most amazing experience I’d had yet. I genuinely didn’t get nervous at all and was just so excited to get up in the sky and jump. It all felt so natural to me, even though I forgot to pull my parachute because I was enjoying the free fall so much (lucky I had an instructor attached to me haha!)

Teach, Learn, Share

I have been learning how to wire wrap and create crystal necklaces, would be more than willing to pass on my skills and knowledge if the resources were there available for me.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My stories and time! If I have any snacks I’d be more than willing to share. Can show you new music, or how to make wire wrapped pendants. We can also do some painting if you have the materials!
