I'm a MA student in phonetics at the university of Turku. I like to meet new people from different cultures. I might be a bit shy at first, but I do like to host people. I like to cook and bake and that's much nicer if there's someone with whom to share the results. I just came back from my first couch surfing trip, a month in Qatar and couple of days in UAE. It was an amazing experience.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have a dear friend who's been doing couchsurfing and hosting other couchsurfers. That got me interested in that too. I've met some of her guests and we have had good times with them.
