Hey there,

my name is Selina but I go by Ellie (23) and I am from Germany. I love to travel the world and meet up with people wherever I go :)

Catch me in your country if you can :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Most of my conversations about Couchsurfing begin with the question “but isn’t it really sketchy?”, accompanied by a raised eyebrow and look of concern. It’s difficult to convince people who have no knowledge of Couchsurfing’s mission that the hospitality exchange network is not only not sketchy at all, but is in fact the best possible way travel, especially for those who want to fully and deeply experience the culture of the place they are visiting.

I mean come on, you learn new things, wether it's how to cook a certain dish or how to open a bottle with whatever thing you can find ;)
YOU’LL EXPERIENCE A NEW CULTURE FROM THE INSIDE , want to get the full German experience? Come and hang out with me haha :D
YOU’LL MAKE NEW FRIENDS, I met my best friends while I was traveling and I am so grateful that they are still part of my life :) we might not be in the same timezone but we are always there for eachother.
YOU WON’T BREAK THE BANK ... many people want to go somewhere and many end up not going and why? because traveling and hostels are getting more and more expensive, it doesen't have to be that way :) be kind to one another :) host and get hosted it's that simple :) money can't buy happiness but generosity can !

So what's holding you back now? :)

Interests

I love to explore and making memories where ever I go 🗺👣

Music, Movies, and Books

Wow that's a hard one.... I love music generally but you can find me at most rockconcerts like All Time Low, Green Day, Blink etc. but I really do listen to everything ;)

Sadly I do judge books by their covers ... (come on, most people do haha ) and if it doesn't get me hooked at the beginning, I won't finish it ... I am a big fan of Harry Potter (it's a classic) and Fantasy in general I guess.

And for movies, I really love Netflix and any genre :) Because I am part American I do love my American TV Shows like EllenDegeneres, LateLateShow etc :) pretty sure we can find movies to watch together.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've had a beer with Ed Sheeran :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Well I can help you out with your English and German skills. I am a great cook.

I am currently studying International Management and Chinese so maybe you can help me to improve my Chinese skills :)

I used to be fluent in French , I am quite rusty so maybe we can work on that too haha :)

And I would love to improve my Ukulele skills.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Many stories about my adventures, good company, I would love to cook for you :) , always a place to return the favour #CSspirit , help with cleaning / making errands :)
