Trying to find an opportunity to combine my interests and knowledge of archaeology, biology and forestry to maintain my way of living.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To keep verifying most people on this wonderful planet are friendly, helpful people. Keep discovering the hidden beauties of the world. Giving the opportunity to others to discover the world in the way I have been doing the past years: by meeting lots of different cultures.

Interests

I love the sound of the hang, violin and drums, but can appreciate any type of music depending on my mood. I enjoy nights of red wine&cheese with friends, talking about life and differences between cultures. Nature, nature, NATURE, sauna, climbing, Spain, Finland, (smiling) people...anywhere, any time, anyhow. I like blowing bubbles, running, yoga and meditation, archeology, books, artesania.
