CURRENT MISSION

Finding my place in this world

ABOUT ME

I'm passionate about literature and languages, traveling and meeting new people. I currently live Tampere in order to finish my studies after a gap year spent partly in Australia. I constantly dream of traveling though... the Trans-Siberian Railway would be especially interesting.

PHILOSOPHY

"Live and let live"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've greatly benefited from CS a bunch of times already by asking and receiving advice, and most importantly by getting to know awesome people! This is an active, diverse community so I'm confident that I will continue having amazing experiences, and meeting amazing hosts and surfers through the site.

Interests

I adore newspapers, especially their Sunday issues with longer, more journalistic articles. All time favorite of mine would be New York Times, but usually I just have to manage with Helsingin Sanomat.

I'm a 110% caffeine addict and depending on the current stress level, can consume up to 10-15 cups of coffee per day. Anything from instant coffee to Starbucks mochas goes. If I get to choose, though, it'll be a large latte.

I like nothing more than a good/long/heated debate over politics, religion or anything else. Best discussions are the ones that make me question my beliefs or opinions.

Other interests include: Ireland, beer, Game of Thrones, long walks, writing and learning Spanish.
