CURRENT MISSION

Managing through spring semester at Uni and also becoming a sailor.

ABOUT ME

Hi! My name is Jenna. I am bubbly, outgoing and easy living (also very talkative time to time.)

I am working through my BA at Aalto university of Arts and design in design department, my subject is furniture and spatial design. I mostly say yes to everything and I have found myself in places that give me so much and working along with people who you couldn't ever imagine working with.

To me the most important things in life are exploring nature, sailing and good food. I also love having a long and thoughtful conversations about almost everything. I think that conversations develop thoughts and things you can learn on.

PHILOSOPHY

Learning to respect different values weather you think they are good or bad values, is the greatest lesson.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have hosted some seriously great people, it is a shame I haven't had a chance to meet up with them again, but I hopefully that time will come soon!

Unfortunately my apartment situation is a bit bad, so I prefer to meet up rather than host anyone. I truly wish this would change since I really like hosting :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had couple lovely visitors and met wonderful people.

Interests

I am interested in thinking green and I am trying to work my life towards more ecological and non-consuming life.
Also I go sailing usually in summer time, I would like to gain more experience so one day I could own my own sailboat and live there!
My roots are in Lapland so I also enjoy crisp air, colorful autumn leaves and hiking in fell. I am also building a small jungle in my apartment but I am having issues where to put more plants.
