Soon to be 25 young woman who is heading off to her first over the Atlantic backpacking trip! I'm feeling really lucky and grateful to be able to embark on this journey that I've dreamed about since I was a little girl: I have always been drawn to the tropics and honestly I have never quite like home back in Finland. For my travels I hope to get to know to myself better and maybe even find myself a place where I'd make my home.

To me it is very important to connect with my body through movement. I like to practice yoga, run and go to the gym. Back at home I loved riding my bicycle as my way of transportation. Dancing though is my absolute go to! Ideally I'd like to start my days with a short twerk practice with a huge laugh after gratitute journaling and meditation.
I plan to get surfing again as I get to the warmer waters. Back in Finland pretty much all water sports you can do this time of the year is ice hole swimming - which I enjoy greatly though! But I live for the sun so I had to escape the winter.
Also I'd love to do more hiking, especially when traveling such beautiful countries.
Over all I would say that I'm quite sporty gal and I enjoy playing around. Always up for learning new skills and testing my physique's limits!

I'm really enthusiastic about good food and I enjoy cooking a lot! Also nutrition as a science interests me. I try my best to eat as healthy and as consciously as possibly - preferably plant based, local and organic.

My hobbies include all kinds of crafts like crocheting, jewelry making (macrame, 3-D design), upcycling clothes and furniture, painting and drawing. I consider myself to be quite artistic, creative person and I hope that one day I'll be able to do such things for living.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm looking for friends/hosts in Central America and South America for my adventures in the winter of 2020!
Let's have fun! :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen pretty much all kind of music, from RnB, pop, rap to alternative rock to even metal. Never forgeting electronic music. Lately I've found trance music and trance music festivals that I love to go to! Live music and festivals in general are one of the things I live for.

I love watching good documentaries, drama movies, dark comedies... My all time favorite tv series are Shameless and GoT for instance.

I probably read tooo much self-help books to be cool, lol.
