I guess I´m more extrovert than introvert as a person. I have always been quite talkative and liked to be with people. Although it´s no problem for me to be without privacy for a while, sometimes I love to be alone and I can enjoy quietness- for example I love walking alone in the woods.

I graduated from high school in the spring and moved out from my parents home. At the moment I live with two room mates in a three room apartment nearby the center of Helsinki. I´m now on a sabbatical enjoying freedom and taking it easy. A bigger mission for this year is to travel around to broaden my view on the world. In the spring 2016 I`ll apply to universities. I`m not yet sure what I´m going to study but It will be an humanistic or a social subject.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My parent´s have been always into travelling, but didn´t have much money when I was a child. So we were travelling quite much but couldn´t afford staying in a hotel. That´s why I´ve actually mostly stayed by locals when I´ve been travelling and have liked it a lot. In that way I can see much more of the culture and the daily life of the country or city. It´s a good possibility to get to know new cool people and it´s much more affordable than a hotel or a hostel. Ideologically the solidarity towards travelers in the Couchsurfing network is very cool, that´s why I would like to be a host as well.

Music, Movies, and Books

"The Master and Margarita", "Steppenwolf" and "A Wild Sheep Chase" are maybe the favorite books of the ones I´ve recently read. I have always been into literature, but I must say I`m quite a lazy reader and should read still much more.

I don´t play music myself, but I do listen to it a lot. It depends on my mood which kind of music I want to listen. The scale of genres and artists is quite big. In the summer I´ve seen many very cool hip hop artists for example "Flying Lotus" and "Public Enemy". Also a Finish psychedelic rock band "Kingston Wall" was more than great when I saw them live.

I like many different kind of movies- the ones from Hollywood as well the more artistic ones from Europe. Only horror isn`t really my cup of tee.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I´ve slept in southern Germany two nights outside just in a sleeping back on a field. That was a very special experience!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can have a conversation of almost any kind of topic and share my point of views and listen to your ones. Of course I can tell stories of my own culture and country. Cooking good food together is always nice. Go outside to see the night live or go to an interesting happening to see live art or maybe a good concert. Money I don´t have too much so very expensive stuff isn´t the thing you should do with me.
