Hello surfers!

We are a couple from the cold north Finland. At the moment we live in Tornio with our dog. Anna-Leena is studying art and Vesapekka is studying business.

We had to move from beautiful Lapland to this little town at the border of Sweden, in order to work and study here. Someday we are going to move back to our home, Lapland!
We love to travel, meet new people and get to know other countries cultures.
We love good food (altough neither of us is a "master chef"), board games, sharing stories, listening to music (pref. live) and good beer!

If you come to our home, you will also get to know our little mischievous dog called Nasu!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We plan to travel more and more and we love to meet new people from around the world.
We have one extra room available for quests.
