Hiya!

I'm Elisa :) Physiotherapist by day and aspiring full time traveller by weekend and a few times a year for longer stints!

I usually travel alone for ease of scheduling which means it makes me easier for me to meet up with some people to share a drink, share a meal or share a laugh 😄

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking for some company and a possible place to stay while exploring new and wonderful places :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Music wise, depends what mood I'm in. For a relaxed/chill night, I like some indie folk to unwind. If I'm looking for something more energetic, then some electronics or euro house does the trick. I also would never say no to some nostalgic old school hip hop and RnB.

Book wise, I love all of Malcolm Gladwell's work. I like mystery or dystopian novels. I usually listen to educational podcasts too (NPR, RadioLab, Stuff You Should Know, Freakonomics etc)

Movies wise, I like documentaries mostly. I enjoy action and comedy flicks too, most genres except for horror and romance to be fair!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Learned a new language in about 4 months -- you can do a lot when you're really motivated

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm all about it! Teach what you know, share what you've learned and learn all you can :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Hopefully a good conversation on a number of topics :) I can provide basic language lessons or phrases but am by no means a language teacher. I'm happy to do a brief assessment of any injury or problematic joint/muscle/ligament/tendon if needed
