About Me

Hello!

I am a world traveler and explorer and have lived in four countries . (Canada, Sweden, Switzerland and Finland) Currently, I am finishing up my master's degree at the University of Jyväskylä, specializing in fundamental nuclear physics. (How do the inside of atoms behave? What are the limits of the nuclear landscape? These are questions which fascinate me!)

Starting in November 2015 I will be starting a PhD in this field. I will be researching in Tokyo for 1.5 years followed by Paris for 1.5 years. I like living in new places and experiencing cultures different from my own.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet interesting people from around the world. And to hopefully help them explore where I happen to be living!

Interests

I have quite broad interests, from photography to skiiing. And I am always open to developing new ones!

  • photography
  • languages
  • physics
  • beaches

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Together with a best friend of mine, we rented the smallest car you can imagine in Iceland, and spent the next three weeks driving around the little island. We camped on moss beaches and in dormant volcano craters.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn new languages, or even some useful vocabulary!

Countries I’ve Lived In

Canada, Finland, Sweden, Switzerland
