Overview
About Me
I have travelled since I was literally small baby. My first trip abroad was from Helsinki to London when I was six month old.
Now days as freelance I can travel a lot.
Even that this life style keeps me quite poor financially - it has give me invaluable experience and understanding about this our planet and most of all about us - humans.
AND above all: I love humour - good or bad anything goes!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm new on Couchsurfing BUT I have always preferred to stay peoples home rather than in hotels.
Over the years when I have been travelling I have stayed friends or friends friends homes or quite a lot in 90's in Europe squats.
I use to live in studio apartment very central of Helsinki 12-years. I had countless friends or friends friends or friends friends friends staying my place - some times even for several months.
Now I live in Thailand but unfortunately I can not host now anyone - situation should change later this year!
