About Me

With a background with theater and drama studies, I have worked in dozens of different kinds of culture organizations, theaters and festivals in Finland.

Films, and especially short films, became a part of my life as a teenager and since then they have been an inseparable part of my life.

At the moment I work in two different festivals in Finland: a film festival and a theatre festival.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel, either if it's abroad or in my own home country. It's hard for me to stay in the same place too long, I got to be on the move. The best thing in new places is the new people. I am every single time amazed at how many awesome people there are in the world. And I have only met like 1 % of them.

I also believe in people's kindness. I believe that if just the people would be able to meet the other people and talk with them and get to know them, the world would be a better place. Maybe I am a bit of a hippie or a naive person, but I have nothing else to believe in life other than love and understanding between other human beings.

And of course, as a person in the culture field, my budget is always the minimum. Staying with the locals, you save a lot of money. So, in the best case scenario: you save money, and at the same time, you meet new cool people.

Interests

Besides films and theater, I love going to the gigs and discover new bands. I also love dancing and singing and of course, travelling.
