About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm a music student at Sibelius Academy in Helsinki. I've been playing violin for almost all of my life, I also love to sing, play piano and guitar and to have jams! I've been in exchange in Austria, Spain and Germany. I'm dreaming of longer exchange in future. I'm a kind, open-minded and positive. I'm interested in different cultures and people.

PHILOSOPHY

Remember to listen and take care of yourself and your body. Trust in God, don't be too materialistic, listen to others, and pick a garbage from the ground once in a day. 😀 Enjoy your life, you are beautiful and precious! Try to find beautiful things in your life to grab on, because there are several chances if you just open your mind. Be calm, stop for a while and listen to yourself. Be awake!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet different kind of people from all around the world, to see the world from the local's view.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Music is such a power that gives me strenght and inspires me and this feels amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

Be present to yourself, stop and listen, be calm and trust in God

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can show you the life through a musician's eyes in Helsinki, I can show you very beautiful places in Helsinki (from my point of view) :) Also, I can cook my special cabbage soup (vegetarian)!
We can also buy a bottle of red wine and just listen to music and chat! What ever works for both of us.
