I'm a Finnish person living in Spain for about 5 years now. I currently live and work in Gijón, Asturias.
Favorite interests include outdoors activities, hiking, biking, running and playing football.
I enjoy cultural activities such as literature, writing, museums, visual arts and gastronomy.
My music taste could perhaps be described as "extreme" in the sense that I love both classical music as well as hard core punk and black metal.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined because I needed to find a place to stay in Holland and was not able to find anything from elsewhere. I tried this thing once when I was younger and had a few good experiences, so I thought why not give it another go.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: classical, stoner, punk & HC, black metal.
Movies: intelligent, abstract, absurd, neo-realism, anything with John Lurie. Follower of Dudeism, and if you know what that means, I probably would like you.
Books: bibliophile. List is too long to write down and picking a favorite would be impossible. A couple of books that have made an impression lately: Houellebecq, Atomised; Hedayat, The Blind Owl. Always re-reading Orwell and Rimbaud.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A Guinness cake, although I messed up the icing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would describe myself as a freethinking humanist.
I enjoy a good conversation lubricated with some decent wine/whisky.
Not afraid of arguments and vivacious discussions as long as there is mutual respect.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will respect my hosts and their homes, and can promise to reciprocate the hospitality at any time.
