About Me

FIRST OF ALL - We are living town called Toholampi (80km from Kokkola). As we would like to host travelers, we have to put our adrdess next big city so all people looking for host from the area can find also us. Unfortunately Couch Surfing organization haven't think about countryside people that much! :)
So now you know where we live and you can think about us twice.

CURRENT MISSION
Travel with small kids.

ABOUT US

When traveling we are not so much interested in tourist attractions but meeting local people and seeing places and things from a local point of view. For example listening to live music or enjoying local food. If there is an opportunity we are happy to discover nature.

PHILOSOPHY

Respect nature and other people around you so you will get much more you give. There is always need for little downshifting and thinking that I can survive with less.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
