About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to find a way to make the world a bit better

ABOUT ME

I am a dreamer who likes to talk but also enjoys silence, not least the silence of nature. I am a vegetarian, a sister, a choir singer, a CISV'er, a voyager, and a reader, and I hope to never stop being curious of people and the world.

PHILOSOPHY

"Even if I knew tomorrow the world would go into pieces, I would still plant my apple tree"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have not yet hosted nor couch surfed, but I warmly welcome guests wanting to visit Turku to stay with me, as I would like to hear more about CS and learn from this kind of experience.

Interests

Languages, photography, people, music, animals, forests.

Music, Movies, and Books

It's impossible to pick, but to mention a few I could say
movies: Mammoth, Crash, The King's Speech, Love Actually
music: Lana del Rey, Snow Patrol
books: Kazuo Ishiguro, Emma Donoghue, Marjaneh Bakhtiari

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Finding an abandoned homestay in the Wyoming wilderness, finding new friends (it never stops amazing me).

I can teach you long words in Finnish!
