About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Taking the best out of the time as being now (spring term 2015) an exchange student in Beijing, China

ABOUT ME

When I was at the age of sixteen, I went my first inter-rail around Europe and after that summer I made a promise for myself: Each year I need to do either one longer trip or two shorter trips to some place where I haven't been before. And that I have kept that promise since then.

So as you might guess I'm the kind of people who like to travel around and meet new people (like probably everyone else participating couchsurfing :D). If I'm not travelling I'm usually staying at Tampere, so welcome to surf on my couch.

I'm easygoing, helpful and social person who as a host wants to help your travel the best way I can to make it be a great experience. Don't hesitate to tell me about your interests / things you probably would like to do so I can think about some option to suggest.

PHILOSOPHY

There's a whole world out there, so if you have a possibility to discover it, do it. There's only one life to live, so it better to be used well, because possibilities wont necessarily always be the same and then you don't want to find yourself thinking "should I have done something differently", because you are what you are now only because of your past.

"Remember Yesterday, Live Today & Dream About Tomorrow"

In general I like those kind of idioms because they usually make me think.
