After that, she lived with international people in Barcelona for a few years while she acquired a Masters in Editing and Publishing. Since then, she’s travelled around Europe and Asia and went on to live and work in Australia for a period of two years. Elena has recently moved back to Barcelona, which is the city closest to her heart. In her spare time, you can find her reading good books, practicing yoga, exploring the city, and watching v.o. movies at the cinema.
