Hi! My name is Eldar and I'm backpacking through Europe in the next couple of months. I'm into art of all kinds, good music, culture and vegan cooking. I'm always up for a good conversation, meeting new people and cultures, and generally an open minded, peaceful and optimistic person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm backpacking all through Europe in the next couple of months and looking forward to meeting new people and experience the places I'll visit from a rather local perspective.

Interests

Visiting museums and galleries, going to local flea markets, making art, reading, cooking, hang out with friends, cinema, riding my bicycle! :D

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Working at a preschool kindergarten for a year, an experience that deeply shaped the way I perceive education.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to draw, how to make eye catching collages, how to cook a four course vegan meal, and even how to skydive! ;P

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a great cook, and a kind, fun-to-be-around person. Promise to "culturally exchange" and sure we will have a lovely time.
