Hey ! Salut ! Oi !
My name is Elsa, I'm 20 years old French student, and I came here in São Paulo to achieve my graduation at the USP.
Infortunaly, the place I live is not mine so I cannot offer any place

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

First, I think this platform is a good way to emancipate from standard ways of traveling. I'd like to travel in keeping with my personal ethic values : I don't want to be a part of the tourism industry who kills environment and human exchanges (and is racist and neocolonial and just takes money lol).
I think that the better way to discover a place is to get to know its people, listen to their stories, understand their emotional connection to that location because for me, that is what creates the soul of a place !
I think that this other type of "trade", without any money, gives a great experience for both parts. Human share should be the centre of our attention because it makes people greater, smarter, more sensitive and more opened. CS might be the way, let me us be those people !!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did a road trip in Scandinavia with my parents

Teach, Learn, Share

I can talk (A LOT) about my life experiences, I don't have a lot because i'm still pretty young, but they always leave me with with reflexions that worth to share.

We can share a discussion, a dance, a song, a meal, a time...

I teach you a bit of French, you teach me how to cook !
I teach you a cocktail, you teach me your favorite sport !

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can join you in your activities, and give you a little moment of joy during your day
