About Me

I'm outgoing person from Finland and (I hope) I'm a fun to be around. I try to be a better person and learn how to chill ones in a while. I'm very open minded and I will try almost everything at least once. I'm always the one with the plan and my super skill is organizing stuff, like booking trips, organizing parties and getting people together.

I'm working as a designer in Kuopio and I design mostly kindergarten interiors and furniture. I try to travel as much as I can on my spare time (which is not enough because I have a full time job). On my free time I organize and participate to different kind of scifi, anime, fashion and fantasy events, read, watch TV, hang with my friends and avoid exercise.

I'm currently living with my cat Tunna, who is a lovable and fluffy asshole. We also have my boyfriend Heikki staying with us, who I travel the most with. He is outgoing and social person, who likes everyone and never gets mad. He loves to play (guitar, drums, keyboard) and makes music on his spare time. He also plays a lot of video games. He is studying to be a industrial designer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet new people, see new places and learn more about the culture of the country I'm visiting and I think that couchsurfing is a good way to do so. I also don't leave my home city often enough due to my full time job so it's nice that people are visiting us and bringing their culture here!

Interests

I'm super outgoing and me and my boyfriend have a huge circle of friends, which guarantees that there is a party going on almost every weekend in which you're invited to if you visit us! As it is a well know fact that Finnish people are quite reserved, this is a great opportunity to get to know the "real" Finnish people by getting hammered with them. I love to socialize and see my friends and we have movie nights, hang-outs and board game nights quite often!

I really love cooking and I watch too much cooking shows (Jamie Oliver is my favorite). I'm into different kind of cuisines, but my favorites are Japanese and Indian (which I know how to cook of course). If you visit my place or I yours, I'm more than happy to cook for you!

I used to read a lot, but unfortunately I don't find enough time for it nowadays. My favorite genre is fantasy, but recently I have tried to get myself up-to-date with classics. My favorite books are Song of Ice and Fire series and I think I should get myself more familiar with other classic fantasy series.

I have a serious TV obsession and I watch a lot of series. I have quite a few favorites but the best ones are Adventure Time, Breaking Bad, Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, Frasier, How I Met Your Mother, South Park, Simpsons and Hannibal. I also used to watch a lot of anime when I was younger but nowadays it's more rare.

On my spare time I play a lot of card and board games. At the moment my favorites are Dead of Winter, Munchkin, Bohnanza, Carcassone and A game of Thrones card and board game. Also fun fact: I used to be the Pokemon League Leader in Kuopio.

Other stuff I like are traveling, cats, energy drinks, beer, alpacas, 9gag, lolita fashion and brunch. I tend to speak in memes sometimes.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like fantasy, scifi, drama, comics, horror and historic movies and novels. My favorite books are the Song of Ice and Fire -books. I love to watch movies, and my favorites are Lord of the Rings, Fight Club, The road to El Dorado, How to Train your Dragon, Disney movies and the Moulin Rouge. I don't really listen to music, so I like almost anything from rap to classic, mostly just radio.

I'm pretty good cook, and I can make anything from Indian to Japanese, Korean and Finnish food.
