Hi !

I'm Elise, I'm 26 years old. For the past year, I've been travelling in England, Italy and Malta meeting people by doing "WWOOFING" and volunteering in different places.
My objective now is to move to Scotland and learn more about the Scottish culture. My Italian friend Giordano and I decided to settle down in Edinburgh !

I'm not very talkative but I love having interesting conversations when the athmosphere is relaxed. On the other hand, Giordano is very outgoing and we are both positive and friendly.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing to find a place where I could crash to look for a flat and a job in Edinburgh. I also think that actually sharing the house of someone living there is a great way to get a first glimpse of Edinburgh culture and way of life (and hopefully make a friend too!).

I like to share a meal or a good bottle of wine so I won't show up empty-handed ! I'm an easy-going person and in exchange of a couch I'll help you out at home.

Intereses

At the moment, I'm a bit obsessed with languages. I'm learning English and Italian. In the future, I'd like to learn Brazilian portugese and go travelling in South America.

In Edinburg, I'd like to start doing Yoga and go for long walks in the country.

I love reading and trying to get my mind around global issues. I'm especially trying to consume and pollute less and I've been vegetarian for 3 years.

I studied Education and even though I'm not teaching in schools anymore I'm still interested in educational issues and alternative teaching.
