Hi! I'm a 20-year-old girl, who loves her hometown. I was born in Turku and I would like to study here too. I'm trying to get into university because I want to be a teacher. I don't blabber much, I'm pretty quiet, deliberate and calm, but I still enjoy a good company.
My primary vehicle of transportation is my bicycle. It's easy because almost everything in Turku is so near my place.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it would be an interesting experience to host surfers. I understand and write quite good English, but cannot speak it too well, so I want to improve my conversational skills. Same with Swedish and German, though I'm not so fluent in writing and understanding those. Also I would like to try couch surfing somewhere, when I travel in the future.

Interests

I'm a scout at heart, though ex scout nowadays. I read a lot and my music taste varies from day to day, but mostly I like rock. I love finnish summer although I get sunburns easily . I spend quite a lot of my summer in our cottage in the archipelago.

Music, Movies, and Books

My music taste varies from day to day, but mostly consists of rock. I enjoy historical novels (both based on true stories and pure fiction), mystery and adventure novels. My favorite books are the Da Vinci -code, a historical thriller Cathedral of the Sea, which is set in medieval Barcelona and Auringon ydin by Johanna Sinisalo. As I was younger, I really liked The Famous Five by Enid Blyton.

Teach, Learn, Share

I really like knitting socks and mittens.
