About Me

Hello!

I am really bad at writing about myself, I'd rather meet up in person, but hey, let's try anyway.

I am currently studying to be a culture producer, which means I'd love to produce my own music festival someday. That's probably my biggest dream. As you could guess, I love music, everything that sounds good is good, I am not genre-religious.

Scifi and Fantasy are my favorite genres of TV/Movies and I could spend my whole day in front of TV watching Firefly for the 13th consecutive time. I am quite a geek, but still outgoing and social, I just enjoy the geeky things.

I work with live music, which means that in the summer I travel around Finland working in music festivals and during the winter I work in a bar that plays live music 2 times a week.

Oh yea, and food. I freaking love food, especially spicy foods, but I love all the foods, that's why I'm probably this fat of a guy. And yea, I'm not taking myself or life too seriously, I joke around a lot.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

That's really hard question. I think I'm here because I'd like to broaden my horizon and meet up local people while travelling.
If you stay with me I will show you some of my favorite spots and give advice where to go and what to do while you're staying at my spot.
I dislike "package-traveling", like you go on a tour with 20 others and one guide tells you something about the location, that's not my style. I'd rather meet up a local and ask them where's the good spot to go and such, so I'd bet this site is great for that.

Music, Movies, and Books

The Martian by Andy Weir, an absolute masterpiece, the movie was OK too.
My favorite music depends on my mood quite a lot, so it's hard to say. Most of the time I find myself listening to rap and hip-hop though.
Star Wars are my absolute favorite movies ever, it's a cliché, but sometimes it's okay to be one.
I enjoy watching animations quite a lot, Gravity Falls, Adventure Time, Archer, Rick & Morty, Clone Wars, Family Guy, The Simpsons, etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I moved to live alone when I was only 16-years old.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you to swear in Finnish, because Finn's swears are badass!
I'd love to learn local cuisine and events, like what kind of events you have and what happens in them.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Traditional Finnish drink: Jaloviina, it's awful.
