to make dreams come true...
ABOUT ME
Sometimes happy, sometimes sad, sometimes enjoying every little moment, sometimes thinking there is no meaning...but overall, just trying to live as I dream to. Which is not always easy. Especially being a person that thinks too much. Inside. But you'll probably see me happy, shiny, chatty and interested in everything.
Its not all about me, but all probably I don't know myself. It's just what comes to my mind right now.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
CS gave me a lot, first through expanding my view and understanding of the world, traveling and life. Then making traveling experiences much more special and staying in one place less boring with the world coming to you. But at the end it's of course all about people. I'm lucky having met ( and still meeting) some very special people through couchsurfing, who taught me something, inspired me or became very good friends. Or all in one :)
Interests
Talking to people, discussing, finding out something new and inspiring, imagining, moving into the world of a movie or a book, exploring another side of the globe, or just your own city, walking around and staring to everything through camera lens, making earrings from anything, creating something beautiful, experimenting in the kitchen, talking foreign languages, meeting happy people, listening for music with a touching voice.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
...walking in the caves with the candle in my hand and water till my neck
...black sand
...huge waves
...diving for the first time and realising there is a a beautiful world underneath..
...staring at the endless blacknes and watching the surounding impressive mountains suddenly appear due to the strong lightning
...wonderful pouring rain that lets you really feel the power of nature
...running through the muddy roads turned into rivers and getting soaked
...getting lost in the tropical forest picking mangos and guavas.
...camping on top of the volcano and seeing the beauty of it appear through the clouds of smoke
...stars anytime in the clear sky
...smell of the first mawned grass in spring
...sound of birds
...sunny spring feeling
Teach, Learn, Share
Though I'm usually the one who's learning and questioning rather than teaching, cause my knowledge about anything is often not very practical or very consistent. At least I think so. But I can probably teach you some macrame jewelry, help with the languages I know or at least share my views of life and spread some positive vibes!
And they're endless things I want to learn. Languages ( Finnish on my list now, ain't easy), photography, cooking and some practical things about running a business, or cafe in particular. But that's more my TO DO list. In general I'm always open for learning new things :)
