I'm a 30-year-old women from Finland. Travelling is very close to my heart. I like to meet and get to know new people, and learn from their life experiences and way of life.

One of the most important things for me in life is that you keep your eyes and heart open, no matter what.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that couchsurfing is a great way to get to know new people. You also have a perfect opportunity to gain or share inside information from the place you are visiting or hosting.

Plus for people who have the passion for travelling but not necessarely a big enough wallet, it is a perfect opportunity to travel on budget.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Starting to built a life that looks like me.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a native Finnish speaker, so if for one reason or another you want to learn Finnish, I'm your teacher. I'm also pretty fluent in English, and don't mind teaching what I know from that language either.

At the moment I'm trying hard to study French. Besides Bonjour and Salut I have learned that it is not an easy language to master. If someone can give me a hand and teach me a thing or two, I would be more than grateful!

I also know a pretty cool trick with playcards I can consider teaching ;-)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share with hosts a lot of inside information about a country called Finland and people living in there ;-)

Travelling is a huge passion of mine. I am happy to tell about all the funny and not so funny (maybe afterwards funny ) experiences I have had on the way.

In overall I am keen on discussing about life and all the little moments that make it so special.
