About Me

Hi! I love traveling and the best part of it is meeting new people and find friends around the world. I’d love to explore new countries and learn more about different cultures.
I’m talkative and open minded and usually I laugh (too) much. My goal is learn about this life and I’m sure that meeting people and listening their stories is the best way to reach that.

I’d say I’m extrovert who loves adventures and events but after a while the Finn inside of me feels comfortable in calm and quiet surroundings.
I hate coldness and it’s a bit ironic that I’m living in Finland. I’m always freezing and that’s why I pack many clothes with me and sometimes getting trouble with too heavy bags 😅 but I’m on a process to learn how to pack compactly!

So far, I have done only one trip using couchsurfing, so I only have few reviews but I hope I’m able to meet more people through this!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet interesting people, share cultures and experiences. Couchsurfing gives possibilities to meet people outside of your regular circles

Interests

All of my interests would never fit in this list, but the main ones are usually people’s stories, long conversations and exchanging thoughts about everything. I love dancing, but prepare to feel embarrassed with me on a dance floor 💃🏼

I have the cutest dog, Coton de Toulear, and she is the love of my life. Sadly she hates traveling so we still are trying to find compromise how to deal with the differences between our interests 😅 but if you come to visit in Helsinki you will have a great chance to meet her.

Events are my passion, every kind of events. And that’s becoming my profession as well. I’m studying cultural management and hope that someday I’ll be a producer of theatre, festival, or even some unique event.

I usually travel to places where I can spend time near the sea. Somehow it gives me a feeling of freedom and peace. Now I’m trying to extend my destinations also to inland. 😄 But I dare say that nothing is more beautiful than nature and oceans and I’m trying to do my best to keep them as they are.

I think good wine, vegetarian food, beautiful landscape and great company is the best match that ever existed
