I'm a 22-year-old psychology student from Finland. I study psychology in Jyväskylä.

My greatest passions in life include psychology. Listening to different people's life stories and views on life is the top priority why I keep on traveling. My goal is to have thought-provoking conversations and widen my view of the life outside Finnish culture. And maybe also learn some practical phrases on as many languages as possible!

As a person I'm calm and polite, but when you get to know me, I tend to get quite talkative. I highly appreciate persons who have big heart and even bigger laugh. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to catch up and travel with backpackers all around the world, but also see the local life via host's. In January 2017 was my first time couchsurfing and traveling solo. I had amazing experiences and it encourages me to keep on traveling whenever I can.

So far I unfortunately haven't had a chance to host anyone from CS (obviously my home town in the middle of Finland isn't such a tourist attraction), but I'd like to help co-travelers when possible. Outside CS I have hosted Finnish psychology students and exchange students from Poland.

To put it short: great meetings, new thoughts and life-long memories!

Interests

I enjoy nature whenever possible. That's why I like to go hiking when I travel. Psychology, cultures and helping others are things I'm interested in having conversations about. I also like to have those fun photo sessions with different outfits and landscapes!

Music, Movies, and Books

I really do like all kinds of music. I love classical and I play piano myself. I also like clubbing and basic dance music goes just fine for me. And then on top of it, I'm (secretly) a metal fan.

Recently I have started to like Quentin Tarantino movies, but sure I watch all kinds of romantic comedians. Tv-series like HIMYM and Friends are anyway the greatest entertainment.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can tell some stories of the homeland of Santa's and try to teach you something about the ability of enjoying silence.

I would like to learn foreign languages and hear your travel stories, since I don't have many of them myself - yet!
