I'm a student from Finland living currently in Helsinki. I believe that every single person is valuable and beautiful. My mission is to help others and myself to find that value and beauty.

I'm looking for challenges that could teach me new things. I try to see the good things around me and enjoy the life. Most of the time I'm optimistic and have a smile on my face. I'm enjoying the life and trying to be grateful for every day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Staying a night or two in someone's home is a special way to meet new people and it also gives good insight to different cultures. I believe that people can learn a lot from each other; everyone has something unique to share with others. It's also great to meet local people when travelling and get their tips about the city.

Interests

I love to spend time in nature and go for hiking, swimming, skiing etc. I like also reading good books, watching movies, going to a theater, cooking, playing board games...

With friends it's great to spend time with a tea cup and chocolate cake while discussing about... everything!

Music, Movies, and Books

Some of my favourite authors are Jane Austen, Alice Munro, Khaled Hosseini, Torey Hayden and Tove Jansson.

I like watching movies that tell a good story or give me some new thoughts about life. Recently I've liked for example Leviathan, Roman Holiday, The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, Cinema Paradiso, Casablanca, The Lives of Others, Lacombe Lucien, Wild Tales, In a Better World, A Separation, Magnolia and Laputa.

I love to worship God with music so most often I listen gospel. Besides that I like pop, rock, jazz, classical and folk music. Lately I've falled in love with Norah Jones' music.
