About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Figuring out Ireland,

ABOUT ME

I'm a country side girl, no matter where I'm living. That is the only thing that I know for sure. I can drive a tractor and milk a cow, always been very proud of these two things, but I do admit it has been years since I did either.

I have been to a few places, lived outside of my home country and I'm not missing it as much as I would like to. Perhaps someday the cow girl in me takes over and I'll find myself from Ikkeläjärvi. Until then I'll keep on looking for something interesting.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Haven't couchsurfed, I'm not totally sure why not. Normally my plans are made quite quickly, perhaps that has something to do with it. Guess I have been a sleeping surfer this far, I'll try to change my habits.

Interests

I like photos and taking them. I like talking too loud, bad habit, trying to get rid of it. New people and new ways of thinking are always interesting, what would be better than a nice debate with a cold strongbow.

  • languages
  • hitchhiking

Music, Movies, and Books

Like a lot of finnish music, Scandinavian music group, Emma Salokoski, Husky Rescue,
Editors, The Killers, Dinah Washington, Just Jack, Patrick Wolf

Favorite book is The Book Thief by Markus Zusak. I like buying books as souvenirs bad thing that they take so much space.

Movies are too many to put down. One thing I can always rely on is Star Wars, nothing better for a mind trying to survive a hangover.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchhiking in Samoa was rather exiting. Got coconuts!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm very interested in languages. I've tried to learn russian and love every opportunity to use it. And you can always correct my english. If you have interest in the 15 cases of finnish language I'll be more than happy to help.

I'm good with photos. Working in a russian ad agency really teaches you how to make beautiful women. Never learned to make the perfect cleavage though. Something for the future :D

Countries I’ve Visited

Samoa, Sweden

Countries I’ve Lived In

Ireland, New Zealand, Russian Federation, United Kingdom
