About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn more about life through the eyes of others.

ABOUT ME

Finnish and worldly. Open and direct-spoken. Living in 6 different countries has taught me that people are generally helpful when you are in a sticky situation. Am happy to make good use of this knowledge through couchsurfing!

PHILOSOPHY

First they ignore you.
Then they laugh at you.
Then they fight you.
...Then you win.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have hosted in the past, and hope to couchsurf one day!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have met some incredible people, and my roommate in London was my first couchsurfing guest in Manchester! I typically only host females and those with excellent references.

Interests

Photography, music (gigs, listening and creating it myself, choir), writing (journalism), dancing (jazz, modern/contemporary), healthcare/science.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Turtles eating jellyfish off the coast of Australia. Dolphins and turtles swimming in the gorge in Stradtbroke Island outside Brisbane, Australia.
Two chickens fighting over a very speedy cockroach trying to run for its life in Trinidad, Cuba.
Experiencing -30 deg C and +30 deg C all in one day (travelling from Rovaniemi, Finland, to Havana, Cuba).

Teach, Learn, Share

Treat others like you would like to be treated yourself. Give others respect and trust unless they prove themselves unworthy - in which case karma is on your side, anyway.
