CURRENT MISSION

keeping my head cold in the hot Finnish summer

ABOUT ME

I have been bitten by a travel fly some 15 years ago and ever since I've been searching new or old time places to visit where I can feel like being at home. After finishing my university I went to New Zealand for a while - amazing place, beautiful nature, nice people. I am sure I will go back there one day.

In general, I am a social person who likes to meet new interesting people. My ERASMUS time in France greatly influenced me into this. I am also open minded and I have a good sense of humor although I don't want be a show off.

I like doing sports like capoeira, gymnastics, footbal, floorball, swimming and badminton. I also relax by reading books or watching some good set of Simpsons or little Britain. I love international kitchen and ethnic food. I would like to learn more how to make good food with simple ingredients easily. And have been quite a bit into wines after been working on the vineyard and having some nice moments with my dearest ones talking about the wine.

I am searching interesting people and unforgettable experiences from every very beautiful country.

PHILOSOPHY

Live in the moment and cherish the things that make people happy. I try not to take things too seriously, even though it sometimes darn difficult.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I heard the first time about couch surfing from an israelian guy in one backpackers in Turengi, NZ. He said that CS is the best way to get to know in interesting people and the cheapest way to travel without compromising too much of the quality of living while travelling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Usually I have had chance to sleep on a matress or even in bed when visiting friends or hosts on journey. Car seats have been maybe the most difficult places to sleep on.

Interests

movies with good script and good characters. I am also interested about music which differs from the main stream. I have also read and would be interested to know more about philosophy and happiness.
