About Me

CURRENT MISSION

If you want to learn how life in some country is, don`t go there as a tourist, just move in&find a job where you`d work alongside locals!

ABOUT ME

A bit of a rolling stone, changing places (or countries) every once in a while. Though for the past couple of years, Finland wouldn`t let me go. Maybe I`m finally rooting in...
I consider myself quite open-minded and friendly, you won`t have a difficult time to start a conversation with me. On the other hand, I am quite sensitive to people coming too close too fast, then I need to take refuge in my own private space.

PHILOSOPHY

"Figure it out yourself!"
If there`s something wacky I can learn, I most likely give it a shot. Like repairing table PCs or learning how to count numerology so I`d see for myself if it really works or not... Curiosity killed the cat - and most likely will kill me as well :) If I get interested in something, I need to turn every stone, look behind every tree to find what`s there.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For now, I cannot offer any couch, as I`ve just moved into this town not so long ago. In fact, I`m still searching for a suitable place to stay. Once I find one, I guess I`ll be able to provide accomodation for 1-2 people - most likely for their pet too - if they are friendly with indoor cats :)
But if it`s hanging out, or even playing board games, count me in!

Interests

Cats, writing short stories&fairy tales, travelling, learning languages (currently Finnish and Japanese). And also RPG games, taking things apart (especially computers). And cooking...a little bit of this, a little bit of that...same as alchemy^^

Music, Movies, and Books

I like watching sci-fi&fantasy movies, documentaries about nature, space, science or foreign cultures, Asian dramas&anime.
From books I`d currently choose Illusions by Richard Bach + ton of manga. And when it comes to music, I`m able to listen to anything, depending on the mood (except for rap and hip-hop, I`m sorry, but these are really not made for me^^)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Looking at Tatra mountains from a train for the first time.
