ABOUT ME

After my studies I spent a year in Honduras working for a women's rights ngo, worked in the same field in Switzerland and am now working as a teaching and research assistant and doing my phd in human geography. I like to think of myself as an open minded person, who likes new experiences and is curious to meet new people! I'm very talkative but still calm, love big cities (Berlin and New York!) but also nature (my Finnish roots ;)). I like trying to see the good side in everything and take things easily.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Give a couch or surf on one or just attend meetings, you always gain on interesting conversations, friends or/and experiences.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

During my stay in Honduras I went camping in a forest with a group of couchsurfers. The weekend was organized by a local couchsurfer who brought us through waterfalls and great landscapes-a great weekend with couchsurfers from all over the world, everyone staying in the country for different reasons.
