Hello🦋 I’m Saana, a 25yo Finnish traveler who’s drawn to unexpected beauty and bold moves with a soft spot for spontaneous kindness and truth told gently. Currently in a life phase where exploring the world more slowly and meaningfully. Would love to meet new people and connect with storytellers🌸

I’ve worked in events and communication, and I’m especially interested in how people express themselves, through movement, writing, fashion, styling, traditional healing practices and symbolic language across cultures. I’m always curious to learn more, whether it’s about everyday rituals, aesthetics or the stories behind things.

Throughout my life, I’ve taken on a wide range of responsible roles from yacht hosting to event coordination, and I bring that same grounded and respectful approach with me wherever I go.

I love good food and enjoy cooking, especially Italian and Mediterranean dishes. Sharing meals and learning new recipes from locals is one of my favorite parts of traveling.

I don’t travel with a strict plan, I like to let instinct lead the way, explore my surroundings freely and follow the rhythm of each place. Curiosity, I believe, is one of the greatest human strengths.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because people are the heart of traveling. I want to meet locals, share moments, cook together, exchange cultures, and maybe make some lifelong connections. I’m not expecting luxury, just a kind soul and a safe corner to rest🌾
