About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My shoes were made for walking.

ABOUT ME

Hello! I can briefly descride myself as a playful and sincere girl. Interested in interaction, water & snow sports and discovering the world in a sustainable way & allowing it to others as well. I enjoy good jazz gigs and doing all kinds of sports. Co-running an ambitious project & company called Monkey Business, banana.fi and currently working on that in Brazil.

PHILOSOPHY

"Freedom is never out of fashion.", as Coco Chanel said.

I live to explore what's out there in different countires and in people's minds in different cultures. If I could choose just one profession to have, it would be: World Reseacher. I also live for new beginnings - projects that start from small but grow big.

"If you can help, help. If you cannot help, don't disturb."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm looking forward to host people from all around the world and also looking forward to surf couches while traveling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed plenty of my friends couches in Europe, Spain, France, Germany, Holland, Italy and Sweden before I knew this concept, now looking forward to couch surf with new people, too. Surfed & hosted already few times and it's all been very nice.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I survived a special entrepreneurship school in Finland called Tiimiakatemia.

Pretty amazing was also the voluntary work at Mother Teresa's Missionaries of Charity in Kolkata, India, in 2011.

Teach, Learn, Share

Each one teach one, yeah!

I'm able to teach cross-country skiing for anyone who wants to learn that.

I'm interested in learning photography both on land and underwater.

My general learning to make life fun and full is to follow this guidance:
More Action. More Chaos. More Mistakes. More Learning.
