Hi, i'm Ellie! I am from Liverpool, England and I am studying English with Creative Writing at the University of Nottingham. I am currently taking part in a study abroad programme at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. My semester here is sadly coming an end but I am looking forward to travelling around the USA.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am couch surfing because I think that it would give me a good chance to meet a lot of interesting people from many different places.

Interests

I enjoy reading, cycling, trying new things, meeting new people and experiencing different cultures. I am an avid dancer having participated in various dance classes for 16 years.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am huge Dolly Parton fan (one of the reasons I decided to study abroad in Tennessee) and my favourite TV show is the US Office! I read a lot of books from different genres but my favourite is Jane Eyre. Also, I LOVE Disney!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most spontaneous thing i have ever done has been moving across the world for a year! It is the first time i've lived so far away from my family and friends!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am extremely eager to learn about the people I meet through this website and build long-lasting friendships :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can bring a lot of English culture to the table. I can supply the teabags (we Brits are famous for our tea!) and you can supply the milk :)
