Hey! My names Eli and I'm a 25 year old raw vegan from a small town in the south of London called Coulsdon. Which is near Croydon. I am a full time body modification artist specialising in body adornment, some of these include flesh branding, scarification , basic and advance body piercing and traditional stick and poked tattoos. I've worked all over London doing this profession. I love art...of all kinds.

In my spare time I run a small family run gardening business. Being a raw foodist it allows me to be in tune and feel connected with the divine power of nature herself. I love the great outdoors so what a better way to get closer to nature than to do some gardening right? I'm a big believer in raw food and I love fruit!!

My love for the open road and traveling started when I was 9 years old when I had a horrific car crash and was bed bound for 2 years with leg injuries. When I was finally allowed to leave the hospital my mother took me to America for the first time. This is where my love for traveling began. Since then I have traveled back to America another 4 times, to Paris , Rome, Moscow. I plan to live my life on the road eventually , and to hopefully one day travel with new beautiful positive happy people who share the same drive and passion I have for the world. Oh , I'm also fascinated with spirituality and Buddhism. Im a vey spiritual person. I'm a secret Buddhist who worships in my own way and in my own privacy.

I really enjoy meeting new people and learning new culture, showing them around the area listening to there stories of where they have traveled. So if your ever in the area and want to meet up, just send me a message, I'd be more than happy to show you around.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Alongside meeting and living with different cultures, learning more about traditional values in that society, meeting new life long friends, I have another mission and that is to travel the world tasting different types of fruits and vegetables. Being a raw foodist for 5 years and vegan 9 years, I am very passionate about the food that I eat, and I can't think of any other better way than to satisfy my taste buds better than by traveling and tasting different types of fruit and vegetables around the world ☺️
