About Me

Just moved to Mexico City! Looking for new friends.

I love traveling and adventures. I like meeting new people, different and weird ones especially, though everyone is unique in their own way -even the boring ones. I think everyone we meet can teach us something.

I'm always up for new experiences. Even though I've travelled a lot, my favorite place on earth is the archipelago in my hometown, where I love to go kayaking as often as possible. I feel like the sea sets my soul free, and that feeling is really addictive for me.

I'm also in love with words. And writing. I like to ponder life and think why we humans act as we do or feel as we feel.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people and to see more of the native perspective while I'm traveling. Making it less touristic, more about people and culture.

Share, see, explore, talk, ask, watch, notice, participate!

Hoping to host and to be hosted. There is lovely archipelago in my hometown in Espoo, next to Helsinki, I'll take you kayaking there!
