Hi there! I'm an assistant English teacher hailing from Finland. Humor is the spice of my life. My mission is to find joy in the little things and treat life as an adventure.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Whenever I'm traveling, what I like the most is to get to know local people and see the way they live. I hope to host others and offer them the same experience, too!

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

With music I don't really mind the genre as long as the tune fits my mood. I also tend to pay a lot of attention to lyrics. Hello! Project, Hikaru Utada, Ultra Bra, and The Beatles are among my long-time favorites.

In movies, books, comics etc. I like adventure stories, fantasy and dystopian science fiction. Star Wars, Margaret Atwood's MaddAddam trilogy and Harold Foster's Prince Valiant series come to mind as some of my very favorite things in the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Learnt how to make cotton candy.

Teach, Learn, Share
