I'm studying Sociology at the University of Turku with my girlfriend. I just got back in to school after several years of working after high school, wich was the best decision I've ever made. I used to be really shy and now that I've gotten over that I'm really happy to meet new people and get all those experiences I missed out on back then. Life is great and getting better every year, for ten years now.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I did couchsurfing for the first time in the spring of 2016 while I was in Chicago for exchange and traveling in California. It was an amazing experience and now that I'm back home I'm hoping to return the favour as a host and of course keep using it my self while travelling to meet great people and hear about the local places. That's what this is about after all, the free place to sleep is just a bonus, and the people you're meeting, both as a host and as a traveller are the real point.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music depends on the situation, I listen to all genres, but currently it's been a lot of Electro swing, house music, hip hop etc. The Big Short was excellent Now I'm reading ''The New Jim Crow'' by Michelle Alexander Other good books have been, Behind the Beautiful Forevers, anything by Joe Abercrombie, Tarry Pratchett etc.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I made a birth certificate for an 84 year old man, who was not considered to exist by his state before it.
