Born and raised in Finland i moved to Canada at fresh age of 21 to learn the ropes of life in a form of a fast paced job as a bicycle courier in even more fast paced multicultural mecca that is montreal.

It took me years of searching , Learning and travelling to finally end up here on the western shores of our wonderful Pacific north western-Canada, where I found myself in most loving living situation living on an organic farm, working the seasonal jobs in the forests and fields practising bhakti-yoga, ashtanga yoga, ayurvedic lifestyle and Vedic studies, keeping my body operational and focused also by sailing, cycling and hiking.

I always enjoy a deep spiritual talks over some delicious prasadam, as I love to cook! Hit me up for a visit even if I am.not able to host you. I can always feed you!

Hari bol!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

give some free bunks and hope to get them in return.
To serve the highest is to serve.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

some random people all around the globe have just invited me to stay with them. for instance in japan I stayed some time with some bike messengers a week or so. A while ago I crashed on gebtlemans couch in NYK and got a great rides around the hoods.

umm...mostly I think I have been invited into peoples couches when riding on my bike and looking tired and dirty and in a need of a place to sleep. thats is very nice. makes me think how many good and wonderful people there is in this world and keeps my belief in the human race (which is sometimes hard to keep).

Interests

In bhakti-yoga, the goal is to never forget our constitutional position as the part and parcel of the ultimate.
This translated to every move we make in this material form of excistence and an opening to a water, that will make a seed of suffering to germinate and grow a jungle over our hearts is being opened by our forgetting that position.
That is why the only way is to remember.
Yoga gives a bag of tricks for us to utilize for that remembering. For this time of Kali we currently live, as it has been described in the Vedic writing since time immemorial is to utilize mantras for meditation. For remembering. This works like a hot knife on butter.

More or less what I thrive to do with this precious time I have been here.
