Hey everyone!

My name is Elisa, I'm 23 years old from Italy.
I'm easy going, energetic, enthusiastic and interested company and I always easily blend in new social situations or places. I've learned to be open to any culture, to enjoy meeting new people from lots of different places and hearing about different peoples' habits and look on the world. Therefore what makes CS attractive to me is that it gives the opportunity to broaden my view on the world and make friends from all over the world.

PHILOSOPHY
La dolce vita- I want to experience the best that life has to offer and will accept nothing else. Always living life to the fullest!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am very new to this website, but my goal is to offer new and fun experiences to anyone who may offer their couch to me in the future as I truly believe CS is about the experience of meeting great people in great places, creating lasting friendships and seeing the world with the eyes of a local.
I love meeting as many locals in new cities as I can, and meeting up with other backpackers along my travels! It helps get the most authentic experience.
