COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Starting to have some. I am back in Finland after three years in Germany and would love to host people but unfortunately I am living in a very small room in a shared flat. I have quite a lot of time and im more than happy to meet up with people and show some nice corners of Helsinki!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The midnight sun in Finland keeps amazing me every summer night. But not the darkness in winter...

I try to find something amazing in every ordinary day

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe that meeting a new person is always a opportunity to learn something even about yourself. Every person has something to teach by only being there.

If something concrete, I can tell something about photography, teach finnish or cook something finnish (no high expectations!)
