Hi I am Päivi. I am originally from Finland but live now in Italy. In my life I combine art and medicine. I work as a Pediatric doctor in Canada and have studied painting and sculpting in Italy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Currently I am travelling in Italy and visiting small art galleries. I enjoy meeting new people and am happy to share my cooking skills with a community . I prefer to stay in Airbnb or couch surfing type accommodations because there is a sense of camaraderie and inspiration.
