About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learn more about life, people and myself! My wish is to travel the world with my bike.

ABOUT ME

I am outgoing and open minded girl living in Tampere, Finland. I have born in city, but nature, animals and environment are big things to me! I am an outdoor-person and I am full of energy. I don't know where it comes from. I think the days are too short for me, so many interesting things in this world.

I am very positive person, with big heart and deep smile! ;) I enjoy being with people in a big group or just two of us.

I love the world and the world loves me! I enjoy different cultures and I will show my enthusiasm for sure! I love meeting new people and learn things. I'm humble to listen and I respect other people's stories and opinions.

PHILOSOPHY

Easygoing, not worrying too much! ;) Open your heart to the world! Follow your heart and instincts, don't worry too much about other people's opinions. Respect the other, be friendly to all and spread the happiness as much as you can!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I was going to travel to Prague, and was wondering where to stay during my stay. My friend told about this site, so I joined and couchsurfed in Prague for my first time! This all happened few years back.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed twice! My first time was there in Prague and the second time me and my boyfriend surfed in Swakopmund, Namibia. Both experiences were absolutely fantastic! <3

And I have hosted one guy from New Zealand as well. He has planned to stay two nights but stayed almost week! We just had too good time together!

Interests

I have lot of interests and too less time to practise them all at the same time! First of all I love music, it is one of the dearest things in my life. I sing in two different assemblies but will explore maybe all of my life.

The other dear thing in my life is nature and every aspect of it! Animals, birds, plants.. I'm very happy to say that I do it also for my living! I am a trainer in nature workshop.

Also I like going out and party with friends and I love all kind of sports! I love laughing and happy times! <3
