I was born in Finland, raised in The Netherlands, spent the majority of the past 6 years in Scotland (there was a break when I lived in Bolivia and then Spain) and moved to Alaska about four years ago. I love traveling, meeting people and learning about different cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm pretty new to Couchsurfing but have met up with Courchsurfers in Edinburgh and Alaska, which has always been a great experience!

Interests

I love whitewater kayaking, hiking, camping and pretty much anything to do with the outdoors. I also enjoy going to museums and art galleries, as well as printmaking.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bought a one-way ticket to Alaska and found a home and community that I love.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love learning new things! I have a list of things I want to learn, including: fishing, rock-climbing, skiing, ice-skating, pottery, growing vegetables, knitting, etc. And the list just keeps growing..

And I am constantly trying to keep up my Spanish, so English/Spanish language exchange is always welcome.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm happy to do language exchange, and I'm always up for an adventure!
