About Me

Have you ever heard saying: You have to step out from your comfort area to learn something new? That is me. I love to put myself to new situation, even unpurpose, try something new all the time and learn something new every day. I come from Finland but I feel the whole world is my home.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

First I thought this coachsurfing is for people who are only bagpacking and travelling the world constantly. But after talking with some of my friends and some coachsurfers, I actually realized this is also a good way to meet new people, join to awesome evenings, learn languages... and much more. I would love to meet as many new great people as possible and someday, when settling down to my own place, offer a place to stay for coachsurfers - where ever I will be in that day, nobody knows what this life brings for you!

Interests

I love meeting new people, joining events and also exploring new things. My goal this winter will be to learn Spanish - maybe a little Catalan as well. During the summer I have been studying Swedish and Norwegian but would love to learn this beautiful language here in Mallorca as fluent as possible.

Also if there is anyone who is interested hiking or any other sport ativities or just exploring culture and local happenings here in Mallorca, you can count me in! Rutas, own museum rounds, hiking trips, beach days, evening chills, movie nights... or anything, I will be there!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love live music. It doesnt have to be famous artists, it is the atmosphere and the people who are making the band famous in that moment! I am really not picky with the music, movies or books - I go with the feeling which I have on that day.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When it was the new year 2010, I told to my family that this year I will leave Finland and I will take an opportunity to live alone somewhere else than in Finland. My mum told me that she had been expecting this moment and hopes I come back. Well, I got a work as a trainee in a hotel in Palmanova. I didnt have any expectations, any experience of Spanish or even knowlegde of Mallorca. But I came here and since that have been going around Spain and Europe and cannot stop. Now my mum has stopped asking, when I will come back. She knows that this is the way my life should have been lived.

Teach, Learn, Share

Live today. Not tomorrow. Not yesterday. The life is here and now. And you are the king or queen of your own life. No one else can live your life so make it look like you.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Chill evenings, maybe movie company, want to learn how to make Finnish food, what ever comes on your mind. I am not only looking for a place to stay while taking a trip to somewhere, I also want to know you, local people, learn the culture, see places and have fun. Life is too short so why not to enjoy it fully! :)
