About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Master my current profession and still find time for travelling.

ABOUT ME

Somehow I just can´t figure out anything good to say ... I like to let my imagination fly, but it doesn't translate into writing that easily.

PHILOSOPHY

Expect the worst, wish for the best.......and don´t let the rug eat all of your jewelries.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

See as many places as possible and meet a whole lot of new interesting people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have now done already quite a bit of surfing on my travelings and have hosted some awesome people. I have had some amazing experiences with the people I have met and wish to continue this way.

Though right now it seems most of my free days I'm away from Tampere, so hosting can be little bit tricky.

Interests

Travelling...in this world and also outside this universe.
The latter works unfortunately only through books, so a lot of my time goes to reading.
Nature and all of its little spirits are also close to my heart.

Music, Movies, and Books

Tooo many...way too many.
But if I now put something in here...

Authors: Terry Pratchett, Neil Gaiman, Robin Hobb, Astrid Lindgren, Philip Ridley, Arthur Conan Doyle, R.A. Salvatore, Margit Sandemo, Scott Lynch, Kaari Utrio, Mauri Kunnas etc. etc.

Music: mostly Finnish, but practically anything from classical to metal.

Movies: basically everything, but fantasy movies are quite close to my heart....not a big fan of horror or action movies( = where plot is replaced by guns, explosions and car chases) but otherwise practically omnivorous.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The latest truly amazing thing was my internship in India the summer 2012, it truly is another world.
