CURRENT MISSION

Travel, meet people and get to know the real culture through couchsurfing!

ABOUT ME

My name is Patrick and I am a 26-year old guy from Finland. I am an outgoing person, who likes to meet new people and see new places. I just moved to Milan a month ago, I'm eager to know the city and the people

My biggest passions are football, languages and cultures, cycling, energy issues and traveling! If you want to meet for a coffee, beer or maybe for a bicycle ride in Milan, just let me know, I'd be glad to show around and also get to know the city!

I have a sofa in my apartment, so there's room for one person. If you need a couch, please let me know. I travel quite a lot, but apart from that I'm glad to host!

PHILOSOPHY

"Älä ota sitä vakavasti" In English it means don't take it too seriously, works very well for me!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had the luck of couchsurfing in Chile, Uruguay, Argentina, Portugal and France and to be honest I have only had good experiences. I think this is a great community to meet people and get to know new cultures.

Intereses

Football, traveling, good food, cycling, energy issues, geopolitics, languages! I speak English, Finnish, Spanish, Italian and French, hoping to improve my Portuguese and Swedish somewhere in the future. Well, I must admit I'm somewhat of a sports enthusiast, so I wouldn't limit myself only on football and cycling, I would also add for example kayaking and hiking!

Música, películas y libros

Old James Bonds with Roger Moore and Sean Connery absolute favourites! Latin American movies, Pedro Almodovar. Lock, stock and two smoking barrels. Rudo y Cursi. Black Adder one all time favorite.

All kinds of music, from reggae, soul, electronic music to R'n'b. One favorite band must be Arcade Fire.

Algo increíble que he hecho

It is hard to compare moments but one of the most amazing things was staying for 10 days with a local family in the village of Lionde in Southern Mozambique with the huge family of 8 kids. Maybe hiking in Patagonia, swimming with turtles, or canyoning in Mexico.
