About Me

ABOUT ME

University student from Finland, Jyväskylä.
Currently I live in a tiny appartment in Finland, so I can`t really host people.

I`m an outgoing person, I love to meet new people and try new things (like most of the people here in couchsurfing :)))
I´m also interested in improving myself (this means reading books, going to different seminars, trying new hobbies, travelling abroad, taking part of voluntary work and so on..) I want to challenge myself and learn new things about me.

My plan for the spring 2015 is to start to paint again and I would also like to attend to latin dance classes. Meditation is also something I really would like to try.

"Life isn`t about finding yourself.
Life is about creating yourself."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This is a great way to meet new people and cities!
What could be better way than have a local person showing you all the interesting places. Also as a student, this is a cheap way to keep your budget at minimum.

Music, Movies, and Books

For a long time I didn`t read anything. It felt that the study books that I had to read were enough :) Now I have started to read again and especially short, humoristic novels and self help books are quite close to my heart.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I worked as a volunteer in a local shool in northern Thailand for a month. Still can remember how scary it was to take the night train all alone towards the new adventure.

What I Can Share with Hosts

It`s interesting to share the views and opinions about life with people around the world. I hope that I can share my knowledge about Finland and show why you should know at least one Finnish person :))

Countries I’ve Lived In

Finland, Hungary, South Korea
