About Me

Community educator (youth work and civic activities) from Finland and from student city Jyväskylä in the middle of Finland. Originally I am from countryside, small place called Punkalaidun. So it is the struggle : city or countryside! But first exploring before settling down!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people,have fun, save money=cheap entertainment!! I want to learn who am I by meeting new people! And I think people can't have too much friends, don't you think? :)

Interests

Sports, music... life :-D

My long-time hobby is shot put, so athletics are close to my heart. I have also fallen in love with volleyball.

Music, Movies, and Books

My music taste is wide! I can listen classical music, metal music, pop, rock, rap .... the National, the Hives, HIM, Sólstafir, Coldplay, Joy Division, Queens of the Stone Age, Mumford & Sons, Editors, the Kills, Garbage, Rammstein, Nightwish, Paperi T, Pää Kii ...

Latest bands I saw were Brian Jonestown Massacre and Korn.

My favorite movie so far is Gladiator. I should watch more movies, but maybe when I have settled down!

I should read more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One year exchange studies in the Netherlands, "a sissy abroad"! ! :-D

I haven't been travelling that much before this, but after this I will..............

Teach, Learn, Share

About Finland. About shot put. About relationships. About mental health. About song meanings. ...

What I Can Share with Hosts

I think I am quite often an entertaining person, I am just what I am, I don't need to hide it : I am silly countryside girl, who can laugh to her own failures! I have lot to learn, let's make learning even funnier!

I think Jyväskylä is nice city, it's not big but I think it has warm atmosphere. Sport city, student city, also lot of culture, so we can find things to do! I like to see concerts and have a beer, how about you?

Countries I’ve Visited

Countries I’ve Lived In

Finland, Netherlands
