About Me

I am quite flexible in several ways. I like sports, squash especially, but also music, of course listening, currently learning to play cornett(o). Beauty is important…
Note that I accept verified guests only.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What I've learned from life so far that at least to me it's a lot more interesting to meet people living in the area I'm visiting instead of doing customary tourist stuff. Couchsurfing is a nice way to implement this.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: the three most important names in my world of music are Bach, Messiaen, and Gould, but I like jazz, too, and several other genres
Movies: I love movies of Hawks, Kieslowski, and Melville
Books: enjoy Dostojevski, C.S. Lewis, G. MacDonald, Tolkien, Aleksis Kivi

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walked Camino Primitivo with barefoot shoes

Teach, Learn, Share

I am curious person, so I'm willing to learn new things.
I can teach people Finnish, in case someone is interested.
I like to share the joy of getting to know new people.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Maybe some music, as I am probably travelling with my instrument.
