I'm a student at the University of Helsinki, studying English, area and cultural studies, gender studies and education theory.

I volunteer at a helpline for girls and women who have experienced violence.

I make music and art.

I'm a feminist.

I'm quite an introvert but a very nice one.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I wish travel on a budget and get more out of my travels!
I've often had people I known over to stay the night, and I've slept on other people's couches, so I'm really just venturing out to a wider group of people now.
