Hello
My name is Ell I'm 22 years old and live in Ottawa Canada.
I'm not so good at writing about myself since there is so many things I can talk about but I will try :)

I am currently working in the restaurant/kitchen industry as a cook. Cooking is my number one passion. I love making new recipes and cooking different kinds of food and just learning about food and where it comes from.

I am also an artist. I have been drawing and painting since I was a little kid. It's one of my favorite hobbies to escape to. I love painting with others or just sketch in my book if I have some free time. I have just recently started to learn digital Photoshop painting and I love it. Can't wait to do more with that.

Another thing about me I am also a circus fire preformer . I play with fire poi.
I have traveled around festivals and cities playing with fire. I only get to do this in the summer. And every summer I am so excited to start preforming or busking again. I have preformed with friends and by self over hundreds of times.

My number one thing that I enjoy is meeting new people from all around the world. They have so much to say and I have so much to learn from every single person I meet. I like to believe that I am a social butterfly . Put me in any crowd and I will find it easy to get to know people and interact.

This summer my plan is to travel across Canada and make it to Vancouver BC.
I am making this account in hopes that it would help connect me with people from different cities .

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am traveling across Canada this summer and hoping to settle in Vancouver BC . I am leaving from Ottawa Ontario and making many stops along the way. I am couch surfing in hope to meet new people and make new connections all over the country.
A few of my really close friends have been couch surfing for years and they always share their experiences with me . I was always fascinated by the idea of couch surfing and I am now ready to experience it on my own.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have seen and done so many amazing things. But the most amazing thing I have seen and done is the love and compassion that stranger offer to each other.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am also an artist and I love learning new painting skills and teaching people how to paint and draw.
