About Me

I'm learning life each day. And loving (it). I appreciate genuineness in people very much!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've had great experiences in couchsurfing meeting folks who also love exploring life through getting connected with new people! I like to find common interests for activities, eat together and I'm really into deep conversations. As a surfer I've really appreciated the knowledge that locals have of their home town/city, so I'd like to share also mine about Finland.

Since couchsurfing seems to have a certain purpose for many people, I want to be clear that I'm not here looking for romances but to enrich my life through meeting people from different parts of the world.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like folk, oriental, jazz, indie...I love both rythms and melodies. Movies: Tracks, Gerry, Le Grande Bellezza, Drifting Clouds... I have also found myself enjoying the Woody Allen movies that he's not in :) As for books, I was inspired for example by Coelho's Alchemist and De Mello's Awereness.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been open to the different, to the other and to the unknown with the risk that it chages me - and it has.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm passionate about learning from and with people through different experiences.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I believe that we all have something to share and give for each other. What it is, is often a surprise which manifests as we get together. One concrete thing I can promise for hosts is to cook!
