About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Try to find new aspects on life and world and to have exciting experiences!
ABOUT ME
I am currently living back in my home town Vantaa, after few years of traveling. Although I'm comfortable where I am my few gap years abroad after high school have left me hungry for traveling and meeting people from different countries! My main interest in life is truly art and all visuals connected to graphic design - I really feel like I live my studies now, it's more like a life style choice! Otherwise I'm pretty interested in just about anything, usually on very analytical level. I am known to be slightly over analytical at times, but I also appreciate a good laugh and dark humor! Not serious type :). Otherwise I'm pretty flexible and easy going, I don't stress about small stuff. I also appreciate good craft beers and new culinary experiences!
PHILOSOPHY
I try to be open to everything and try to understand all kind of different people and their choices. I try to experience as diverse things as I can and meet different kind of people. My leading idea is to try to learn about the reality, world and life and always try to find new aspects on life. One can never stop learning new and one can never know everything.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I heard about this site from a friend and the idea of meeting new people around the world sounded interesting.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
not yet.
Interests
Like I said I'm interested in all kind of creative things, paintings, sculptures, photographing, or art in whatever form it is is truly my passion. Psychology is also very interesting, and it is always fascinating to try to analyze people and their motives and also in a way try to understand yourself more. And I would lie if I didn't say there is this little nerd in me who loooves physical mysteries -wormholes, dark matter wat ever Sci-Fi stuff there is.

Music, Movies, and Books
Movies that really have sticked in my mind are The Wall (with the music of Pink floyd), Donnie Darko, Space odyssey 2001(the ending wow!). AWhen it comes to music Pink floyd is my absolute favorite. I also like the old psychedelic rock like the Doors, Jimi Hendrix and the Beatles. To my surprise I have actually started to like the psytrance -though I'm very new in that area as that genre and culture around it hardly exists in Finland. I like songs that are somehow a bit bizarre. And I also love classical music, I think only few progressive rock songs have been able to carry through so much emotion and passion as Vivaldi or Tchaikovsky. Of books... Well Douglas Adams is awesome, I never get tired in reading his stuff. But can't really name a one book here, there has been so many amazing books I have read and each one of them has made an impact on my life.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Coast of Norway in the late autumn. Amazing, can't describe with words so that it would get all the honor it earns to have, it was so powerful. Huge, heavy clouds hanging from the sky on the freezing cold restless sea, shivery wind whining and millions of dead seashells and crabs just lying on the beach dead as a rock. Truly, in very rough, dark way one of the most beautiful scenery's I have ever seen.
Teach, Learn, Share
Well, the people who have a philosophy in life, who may not be the happiest or most popular but who really use their brain. Usually the people who have not had the easiest path are the ones who you can learn from. I really can't tell too much how the person would be because how would I then learn something new from him/her? You can sense them when you meet them. What I can teach to other people -well I know how to use different tools for painting, oil paints, water paints charcoal and now I have started to study (on my own time) how to paint with Photoshop.
