About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To do the things i love! Grow my own food as mush as possible and live sustainably. I live alone in the forest, with my dog and three cats. I have two beehives, so i can get my own honey. This is a small village, 180 people live here and the nearest shop is 20km away, but the "shopcar" comes every friday! :D So not for everyone, but i really like it here! I´ve been living now two years in the forrest, and i think there is now returning to the city after this :)
ABOUT ME

I´m outgoing and positive person, i like to meet new people and learn more about life in different parts of the world. I enjoy good time with friends. I love nature! I have never had a smartphone.. I like to learn about old traditions and respect the nature and all beings.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i haven´t had any couchsurfing experience yet, but it would be nice to get some experience and get to know people!

Interests

I like art in all forms, and i´m interensted in learning new techniques and always developing something new. I recently graduated as a metal artesan, forging and blacksmiths job would be my dreamjob. I spin fire poi for fun sometimes. I like to be outdoors a lot in the summer, i love the sun! I like to grow plants and vegetables, new this year are blue and violet potatoes that i just ordered.. :D

Music, Movies, and Books

i like all kinds of music actually, old music like The Doors, The Beatles, Janis Joplin, Bob Dylan etc. and new music for example Gramatik, Quantic, Infected mushroom, Ott, electronic music an so on.
I like Tim Burton movies. I like movies that don´t open to you the first time you watch it..

Teach, Learn, Share

From every person you meet you can learn something new and get a new perspective in life! I can teach you jewelry making or other handcrafts. I can show you how to take care of honeybees, organic farming etc. There is a lot of wild herbs that you can collect, all the medicine people really need, can be found in the nature! I also make dreadlocks and repair them, so if you need dreadlockmaintenance i can also help with that. :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

My home, my forrest, my stories. You can come and help me with jobs on the farm or you can just relax in the nature by yourself. There is lake Päijänne near by, about 500m from the house, so in the summer you can go fishing or just row the boat for fun. In the summer there is a lot of possibilities!

Countries I’ve Visited

Bulgaria, Estonia, France, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Romania, Russian Federation, Sweden, Turkey
