ABOUT ME

My name is Ella. I'm 28, and I'm from Helsinki, Finland. I am currently living in Finland and working as an architect. I consider myself quite social but also love contemplating on my own. I love exploring new things but also appreciate the many good things and people already existing in my life. I value kindness and empathy but also good humour. I love live music, dancing and good conversations with people. I also love building a good campfire and roasting a good meal for dinner in the forest. There's nothing better than waking up in the forest and preparing a sweet cup of coffee in the fire in the morning!

I try to live my life finding humour in things. I also aim at consuming as little as possible. In the past years I have started bikepacking and have ended up in amazing adventures in France and Norway. I also go climbing regularly and have tried kayaking last summer. I like trying new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a wonderful way to get to know new places by staying with locals. I have had some great experiences with couchsurfing, meeting people who showed me the secrets of a new place.
