CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy everything beautiful and amazing in life and the world

ABOUT ME

I would say I'm very easy going and I enjoy meeting new people, especially people with different experiences, cultures and backgrounds, who can teach me things about them and myself.

I'm a bit schizo in the sense that I have two quite different and dominant personalities. One has the wacky, impulsive, "hey-let's-just-live-like-there's-no-tomorrow" kind of mentality. The other one is more calm, responsible, "hey-let's-maybe-think-it-over-one-more-time-there's-always-tomorrow" kind of thing going on. But the first one usually wins - both good and bad :) I love experiencing new things!

I want to get as much as possible out of life and that also means, that one has to learn not to overlook the small things. Smiley, philosophical, bouncy, restless, flirty, calm, confusing, emotional... I think my hybridness (Swedish/Finnish) has left me with the good and "bads" of two very close, but still extremely different, cultures. Interesting is the word! :)

PHILOSOPHY

Dream as if you'll live forever. Live as if you'll die today.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try and spread the word of Surf-travel as much as possible! It's a brilliant way of seeing the world and I wish more people could experience that.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Been hosting in small scale for some years and have also been staying at CouchSurfers when I've travelled. I think it's a brilliant idea and am happy to be a part of it.
As soon as my apartment is ready and I start travel "surf-style" again I'll be right there with you!

Interests

My family, friends and pets are the most important to me, so I spend a lot of time with them. There's so much I love to do and travelling is definitely one of my favourite things. That's why I try to do it as often as possible, so I can discover new places and cultures.

Exploring is over all the one thing that makes my life wonderful. Whether the exploring is about new people, what's happening around the corner of where I live, seeing some new place on the other side of the world or learning to tap dance - my curiosity is what keeps me going!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Where to start... can't pick just one thing.
Life and travelling is full of wonderful and amazing things that leaves you wanting more! From my first long trip on my own to Australia where I really got my travel bug fired, to the amazing road trip in Costa Rica where I traveled to start ticking of my list of wild animals to see before I die, to my yearly pilgrimage to Glastonbury to quench my thirst in music and pure happiness, to Sri Lanka where I took my sister and introduced her to the big world and became the first women and tourists to ever have camped with our own gear in Udawalawe NP, to Namibia where I discovered that there is no luxury hotel in the world beating a rooftop tent on a Jeep out in the wild where the only thing closest to you are the Dassies and the Milkyway. Just to name a few! I could go on forever.. and I will keep on adding amazing travel memories for as long as I can.
