ABOUT ME
Day time teacher.
One of the running forces of ug drag scene in Helsinki as producer, performer and mother of everything. Queer burlesque performer.
I live together with my boyfriend, who was born in Istanbul but lived most of his life in London. Our home language is English.
PHILOSOPHY
Be open. This world cannot be saved by green energy or growing back rain forests, if it's not saved by gaining some more trust and love among people living in it first.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I was brought to the community by a guy I met outside CS, and fell in love with the concept. I (and later we) have hosted a lot of times and wish to be able to surf more, I have just done that couple of times.
