About Me

Hi, I’m Eliana 👋🏻 — a 24-year-old medical student from Italy.
I love traveling (I know, such a cliché — but it’s true!), but even more than that, I’m deeply fascinated by human nature. I find it incredible how conversations with people from different backgrounds and mindsets can be so enriching.

I truly believe that everyone has something to teach, and that every interaction leaves a mark — shaping our thoughts, our perspectives, and, in some way, making us grow. That’s one of the main reasons I’m here: I love sharing stories, exchanging opinions, and discovering new cultures and traditions through the people I meet.

I live in a lovely flat in beautiful Sicily — so if you ever need a place to stay or would just like someone to show you around, I’d be happy to help! (Just let me know in advance since I’m often busy with classes and hospital internships.)

Beyond medicine, I’m passionate about hiking, snorkeling, bouldering, and pretty much anything that screams “adventure.”

Writing and reading are big parts of my life (Camus, Isabel Allende, Hesse, Sartre, Conan Doyle are some of my favorites), I do photography, and occasionally play chess.
