Hello, I'm Elya, a drop in a vast ocean and a vast ocean in a drop.

I'm from Cyprus but currently live in Athens and studying my big passion: Shiatsu! (in case you don't know, it is a massage technique from Japan)

I am 'high on life' most of the time, happy, deeply appreciating life and embodying all my senses. Meditation and yoga help also.
I am a big big nature lover and especially a Sea and Sun lover. I go swimming whenever I can, all year round.
I came to realize that there are 3 things in life that deeply fulfill me, and these are:
--Helping people in any way.
--Let creativity FLOW through me: be it jewelry making, writing, singing, photography, painting, dancing, you name it.
--Be close to Nature - the best way to push the 'Restart' button of my mind.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I'm always up to meet interesting souls. I have met many amazing people through the site either by hosting/surfing and became good friends with many of them.
