    Travelling

  • Description

    Hey there! I'm Elvira, an enthusiastic and curious person. I love meeting new people, because I'm so eager to understand the world and how different people think and live. I've always travelled a lot, but my deeper interest for other cultures begun when I did an exhange year as a teen. The experience started my curiosity for experiencing how different people live and my interest in living in other countries. It's like trying different lifestyles.

    I'll tell you a bit about my hobbies: I'm really into cooking and baking, specially baking bread. I also enjoy outdoor activities: hiking, skiing, running and swimming. I've previously worked as a swimming teacher. I also enjoy creative hobbies such as modern chaligraphy, writing and embroidery. I used to do penpalling, a hobby I really loved. I also love acting and have been doing it since I was a child.
