I am currently working and living in Heinola, Finland. I studied in 2010 as an exchange student at the Mikkeli University of Applied Sciences and I enjoyed the experience quite a lot. I made very good friends. Then in 2013 I worked for half a year in Oulanka National Park. It was amazing.

In 2014 I started to work for a forest products multinational company and here I am. My current mission is learning Japanese. I have wanted to learn it for many years and now that I am more or less fluent in Finnish, I am finally starting.

I enjoy talking with every kind of people. I'm friendly, easy-going, open-minded and I love learning new things about different cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really love the idea, it is always fun to be with locals when you are visiting somewhere and in my opinion your experience is deeper. I went to Tampere and stayed there for two nights with a very sweet Finnish girl. It was a great experience and I had a lot of fun. 6 months later I stayed again with her. Later I have stayed also in different places in Finland.
