CURRENT MISSION

...graduating [DID IT!!]
…Finding a purpose

ABOUT ME

First of all, the important things you need to know: I don't need much (space,luxury or extra care) and I am not spoiled in any way. I will gladly try to make our shared experience a really good one and will happily help you with stuff (housework or being your wing-girl at a party,idk). I'm not complicated (maybe except for eating vegetarian, but I don't make a big fuss about it and I always have/find food)..damn, I screwed up the list..anyway. Most importantly I would just love to meet and get to know all you awesome people while visiting your awesome home(towns).
{If you need or want to, you can skip this:
I think many CSers say this about themselves, but I, too, am a little different. You can't exactly pin-point it on something big, but in general.
Describing my character is very hard because I'm very adaptable and vary in my behaviour, while suprising myself even, depending on the occasion.
But certain things are true all the time: I love good books, good music and 'good people' ..with good, I probably mean 'deep' people who can understand my occasional weirdness and have some of it themselves, but then again, in general, I got along well with everybody I've met so far.
As I said, I change colours pretty quickly sometimes and can be very lively and talkative, but also very laid-back. But if I meet someone nice, I always love to get know that person not only on a 'small-talk basis' but becoming friends.
If my friends tried to describe me, which actually they sometimes do, the have really odd ideas, or fail completely. All of them are very special to me and maybe because they aren't too normal either we love each other so much.
Lastly, you don't have to be 'crazy' so we can get along, but if we get to know each other, I may wake that little well hidden crazy part in you...who knows.
In case you're still reading: I forgot to say that I'm no religious person,but that one's complicated too

PHILOSOPHY

I could write on this for hours. But to keep it short: I'd call myself a positive Nihilist. Whatever that means, right? ..I can explain when we meet!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd like hosting people and I have the space and all. BUT I live so far off from anything, that there's really very little interesting things to do/show
IF however you like trees, grass, insects and the occasional cow: you are so INVITED!
{Well, I have hosted twice now, return visits from CSers I met and stayed with already! Was an awesome time!}

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

{With updates}

July 2014
>haven't had any yet...unfortunately
> Wow. Only three days in and I'm awed and amazed by the hospitality, the people and the opportunities!

>My second bigger trip now...and I am still in contact with the awesome people I met last year. Hoping to find such good friends this time as well :))

Interests

Nature, that good old thing can fascinate me for hours and days...
As i said above: literature and music
I do a lot of music myself, in a band and either singing and playing guitar or playing piano.
People- getting a little weird again :D
I'm crafty, like...knitting and other uncool stuff.
And: Like a true CS-person I, of course, love travelling!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ah, I won't put anything here, because already now heavy nostalgia is creeping up on me!

Teach, Learn, Share

It seems I have become accustomed to travelling with my guitar, and lately Ukulele, though that might lead to an unwanted biceps reduction. So: I can serenade you, or if you're interested enough, I'll show you how to play or we sing together.
I really enjoy cooking with/for my host. There's a finnish dish that's usually a novelty to anyone ;)
If you're interested in the horrors that are enclosed in learning the German language...I'll be your guide through German grammar. OOOR: I just teach you a few practical sentences and some funny insults.
