Overview
About Me
I have born in very tiny village in middle Finland - in the middle of nowhere. Teenager-time has went out, but I feel younger what I am.
Everywhere I'm living or travelling, I'm spending my time to look around the city, medow or forest - taking photos and thinking too much. I love nature and silence and thats why loudy bars and parties are nightmares for me. Even in big cities I usually find some peacefull place for thinking.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
While travelling I want to learn local culture, not a turist life. Luxus for me is not expensive super-comfort hotels but face to face contact with people in normal life. I'm never joining hotels if there is some cheaper accommodation (usually I've been in hostels).
The most important thing is to increase happiness and trust between people around the world. It happen out of our own bubble, so we need to step out there.
