About Me

I'm a 20-year-old girl who lives in the land of the thousands of lakes - Finland. I'm sharing my life with my boyfriend, one cat - Simba, and friends. My dream is to travel the world some day... and another just as big dream is to get into university and study psychology.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people! That's the main thing. I also love different cultures and languages and what would be a better way to learn more about them. Also I'm a budget traveler, so staying at locals' homes would let me see more of the world :).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was as an exchange student in Germany for 3 months. The amazing thing about it was my braveness to be able to leave my home and move to a place I knew nothing about. The experience its-self wasn't that amazing.

Also the best experience of my life was to backpack around Thailand for a month. So glad I did it.

I also got into activist stuff and at the moment I take part in a support group for undocumented people in Finland.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you the second most difficult language in the world - Finnish.
We can cook together, I'm not an expert, but I love cooking.
I can be your friend ;)!
