ABOUT ME
Moi!
I'm easy going, open minded and friendly Finnish guy with a good sense of humor.! I'm living nowadays in Prague Czech Republic.
When I'm traveling I'm going without bigger plans and just with the flow.
I travel cheaply because I want to show people that you don't always need a lot of money to do so. And during the travel I want to meet lot of locals as that is the real fulfillment of traveling new places. For these reasons my top 3 plans are couchsurfing, hitchhiking and volunteering every time I travel somewhere.
I'm from Finland, but I have also lived 6 months in Budapest, Hungary (+ I have traveled there at least worth of 6 more months.). Then I used to live in Krakow, Poland for few years and in New Zealand for 8 months.
I'm interested to meet and talk with a lot of people from different places on earth. + I'm a huge fan of traveling!
PHILOSOPHY
Get up, survive and go back to bed/couch. :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
First at all I heard about this webpage and community from Finnish radio show and next weekend I was getting to know CS-people at summer meeting.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have been hosting time to time some couchsurfers in my flat. I'm also going to CS-meetings pretty often.
I have been hosted by other couchsurfers in Hungary, Romania, Netherlands, Poland, Czech Republic, Austria, Japan, South-Korea, Vietnam and Singapore.
Interests
I'm interested to meet new people from all around the world.
I really enjoy to share experiences and tips about travelling and life generally. :)
I am also a real fan of team sports, both playing and watching.
And of course I also like to go out with my friends and share a drink or two after the work week.
Music, Movies, and Books
All kind of music fits for me - usually it depends on my mood what I wanna listen.
I'm kinda fan of lyrics and I usually like to listen songs carefully, so I could reach the story why this specific song has been made.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I was the first person of my family to be in the airplane!
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you Finnish and little bit Hungarian/Czech language, what I know.
And also, if you are even little bit interested about hearing how to make paper, I can tell you that. :P
I'm able to share lot of tips how to travel cheaply in Europe and different cities over here.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can share stories in the shared ride to a place where we can share drinks!
Sharing is caring - as you might have heard!
