Hi, my name is Elena, I lived in Italy up to my 30s where I qualified and worked as a Product Designer in Milano. I moved to Edinburgh where I raised my 4 children and went back to study as a Counsellor. I'm now working in a Bistro as a cook and bar attendant because I love food and hospitality, while I offer private Counselling consultations during my time off. I would be an interesting host because my life experience makes me comfortable with people and willing to transfer knowledge about places where I’ve lived and built personal memories and attachments for a long time. I am a very active and fit person, very curious and observant, enthusiastic and happy to share with others, whether is about food or communication or activities, always with love and care. I love and know Edinburgh as much as my beloved country and town of origin Italy.
