About Me

I smile easily, love coffee and traveling. I live and breathe writing, photographing, designing and everything creative. I am interested in different cultures, languages, and technology.

I am happy with a mattress - a random fact about me is that I don't even own a bed. Haven't had one in ten years.

Can't wait to meet you!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because since I was a kid I slept with world Atlas under my pillow and told mom I'm going to see the world. I love to see different places, have an adventure and meet new amazing people.

Interests

Dancing, gym, any kind of exercise. Adventures, interesting pieces of history which most people don't remember, stories and writing them, drawing when I feel like it...

summa summarum; creative things where you can use your mind and body.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Left from Finland and living aboard: 1,5 years in China and ½ a year in Thailand. Now I am making my way to UK.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm all about learning at least one thing every day and developing oneself. Mental things matter to me more than material things I could get - and travelling, meeting new different kind of people are the best ways to learn.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my spirit and abilities, I can draw and write - or I can teach Chinese.

I also rather talk about life and wonder differences and humanity than who was the singer of a song or what the latest popular culture phenomena are. I also have my Finnish attitude known as being straightforward, open and honest.

Countries I’ve Visited

Bulgaria, China, Estonia, Hungary, Malta, Norway, Singapore, Sweden, Thailand, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In

China, Finland, Thailand
