Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Do THEATRE! Study social work pedagogy. Grow as a person. Give and receive.
I´m at the moment in SANTIAGO DE CHILE, so I can´t naturally host in Helsinki, until I´m back over there by autumn!
ABOUT ME
I´m a person who´s constantly curious about her surrounding.
My closest ways of expression are writing and movement, but I´m really interested in all the different ways one can express her/himself.
I´m a spontanius person, the one who lives by improvising since the surroundings keeps changing and the conditions within.
I have lived in north of Germany in the middle of nowhere in the country where there were more trees than people. In contrary I also lived in Barcelona in a small squatted house with lot of impulses coming and going. I feel that I need them both: the true silence and solitudness and also the funny constantly moving carusel with lot people and impressions.
I spent for three years in South-America, finding my cultural home over there. I fell in love. I was so far away from home, but still so close, mentally in the right place. I´ll be going back over there, perhaps I´ll live there one day. The relation I have for South-America is like an eternal love: you know that you will go back for it, always.
PHILOSOPHY
Everything will be ok at the end,
if it´s not ok,
it´s not the end.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I traveled for years around Europe and South-America and had a constant change and movement as an everyday lifestyle for me. I was constantly staying over in some houses of other people, and felt SO grateful about it.
Now, since I finally have stayed in one place for some time, I´m glad to be able to pass that good energy I received for other people.
So I can host once in a while and I´m also really eager to meet up some new people from all around the world for coffee or for a walk.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
In Barcelona I have hosted countless amount of people who needed a place to stay. I have also travelled a lot around Europe without knowing where to stay the next night and meeting so many kind and helpful people just by coincidende.
In South-America a lot of people adopted me in their homes and even in their lives. I´m so grateful that I don´t have words. They were encounters which certainly marked my life. My way of being.
So I think I know well the both sides: being the hostess and being the surfer. I would enjoy hosting a lot more in the future.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Hiking hundreds of kilometres with my friend in the wilderness of finnish Lapland without seeing any other living creatures for weeks except reindeers.
Teach, Learn, Share
I do theatre and dance, so that´s indeed something I can share and what I´m really interested in learning for more!
I can do also some knowledge- exchange of yoga and creative writing.
My passion is also vegetarian cooking, so that´s something I can exchange a bit. :)
I´m interested in so many things and keep getting into more and more fields of different things so whatever you are into,I might be just interested in what exactly you are passionated with.
