ABOUT ME
I am calm, happy, easy going girl with many difficulties in the past now. I love slow, peaceful living without stress. I definitely don't like winters without snow! Adventurous, traveller.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
July 2007 I hitch-hiked in Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Switzerland, Liechtenstein and Austria. The plan was to do it with my friend, but she took it back. So, I made the decision to do it all alone. It might have been the best decision I've ever done :) When I travel alone, it's waaayy easier to start talking to new people. People I met during the July - both on CS and on the way - were the absolutely best part of my summer 2007! Thanx for all of you ;D
15.9.2014 I started my Spain journey by couchsurfing in Musti's home in Fuengirola. I supposed to stay there for a while, but after all I lived in his home for 8 months. Very positive experience!!!

Teach, Learn, Share
I know something about life, but always want to learn more! I've Hitch-hiked in and outside of Finland about 7 000 km. Many things - both good and bad - has happened to me during the last 15 years.
