CURRENT MISSION

The Journey of life is Happiness!!! I am on that journey travelling the world and meeting the most beautiful people.....life is close to perfect :)

ABOUT ME

I am El, I am currently on the adventure of a lifetime. I left home (Australia)5 months ago. Travelling has been the best decition I have ever made. I have learnt so much about culture, people, history, art and more.

I am a very happy, bubbly person. I am living my life to the fullest, and there is no better way to do that then to get out there and meet people!
I am very easy going, as nothing can get me down.

I have studied Buisness Law previously, but now I have decided I want to be a Primary School Teacher as I have a HUGE love for children.

PHILOSOPHY

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let us down, probably will. You'll have your heart broken and you'll break others' hearts.
You'll fight with your best friend, you'll lose freindships & make new ones, and you'll cry because time is flying by....
So take too many pictures, laugh too much, forgive freely, and love like you've never been hurt.
Life comes with no guarantees, no time outs, no second chances. you just have to live life to the fullest, tell someone what they mean to you and tell someone off, speak out, dance in the pouring rain, hold someone's hand, comfort a friend, fall asleep watching the sun come up, stay up late, be a flirt, and smile until your face hurts. Don't be afraid to take chances or fall in love and most of all, live in the moment because every second you spend angry or upset is a second of happiness you can never get back.
They never said life would be easy, but they promised it would be worth it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I think the CS project is brilliant! We all need to come together as one. There is no better way to experiance a country than to live it, feel it, & breath it. Meet the people, stay with the people and your experiance will be muiltplied!

Interests

The beach, Guitar, Travel, Fireworks, Soccer, Festivals, Live Bands..........
I love sports, anything outdoors. Bike rides, exporing the country, extreme sports.
I love books, all autobiographys. I love whats real. Especially history & CULTURE! I think you learn more from people & actually being there than you can learn in books!
I love arts, I could visit Galleries all day long.
I love to cook a good authentic meal.
And of course my family & friends are everything to me!
