ABOUT ME

I'm 25 years old. I just spent the last 5 years living in San Diego, California. It was amazing. In January 2010, I got the opportunity to move to Sicily. I love it here and have already traveled to a number of different cities. I love meeting new people and making friends. I love to laugh and share stories.

PHILOSOPHY

Time spent wishing, is time wasted. My brother continuously tells me, "Elya, don't be 60 years old and look back and regret. If (that) is what you want, then DO IT!"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just learned of this chance to meet new people all over and I think this is an awesome opportunity to do that. I'll be opening my couch to visitors in the very near future.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm as new as they come.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite author is Ken Follett. I read pretty frequently. My literature ranges from fiction/fantasy to autobiographies. Music and movies are just as versitle. The only exception is horror movies. I just can't hang, I'm a wuss when it comes to those.
