CURRENT MISSION:
To do circus as much as possible, in many places, see places, meet people and be happy.

ABOUT ME

I'm a 24 year old acrobat, from Finland, based in London at the moment. I train acrobatics, mainly handstand, pair acrobatics and contortion, but also other acrobatic stuff and trapeze. On the side of working as a circus artist I also do some gymnastics coaching.
When working with circus I'm like super goal oriented and ambitious about my work, so I might seem a bit like a control freak if you see me busy with work. Maybe with work I'm a little, but mostly I just like to get (boring) stuff done quickly so I can concentrate on something else, so don't freak out :D
I also have a life outside circus, it's quite marginal though, since living as a circus artist takes a lot of time, not just the long training hours, but also it takes so much time with all the boring paper work.
But outside circus I like to explore places (usually in new places I just walk around for hours or go running), cook and eat vegetarian food (especially I like spinach things and also I love breakfasts), have good talk with people over cup of tea and go to parties, mostly all these rave parties with electronic music and where people dance, which I also like to do, even though I'm not that good dancer, most likely I will just bounce around like a bambi lost on the highway, haha,, but in these parties where the whole mass in dancing it doesn't really matter. If you come to London we can go to some party, they are so much better here than they were back home in Finland. Or we can hang out, get some lunch etc. Unfortunatelly I'm not able to host any over night guests at the moment since I share my bedroom with another girl.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

I like electronic music.
I read a lot of books, both fiction and non fiction. After I got the kindle app on my phone I have become a major consumer of books again, like I was as a kid.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I moved to rural China to study contortion.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can bake, especially I love making cake pops!
I can offer tips in acrobatics and flexibility training.
We could also go to some party (I mainly do electronic music, but absolutely no edm), so if you are up for a night or even a morning out dancing to techno I would like to share the event with you. I can also meet up for lunch or breakfast or some sight seeing etc.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Some of my time, my varying level language skills, and baking,partying, some stories from travels maybe.
