About Me

"When I grow up, I wanna be an adventurer."

People tend to describe me as a lively person, although lately they've been adding the word "crazy" in front. I prefer acting rather than planning ahead thoroughly, then again I'm super into deep conversations and debates. The best things in life are piano, music (especially classical and metal), mountains and sea, but the most of all, love.

I’m always up for new adventures! The most recent adventure for me has been moving from Finland to France. And since my French really sucks, I’d be happy to meet other English speaking people around.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because hotels and guided tours are for tourists, not for travelers!

I’ve been amazed by all the amazing couchsurfers I’ve met along the way. My door is always open for you guys👊 This community is pure gold.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I gave up my apartment, sold my stuff and left Finland to explore the world with my backpack, without a plan to come back.

Teach, Learn, Share

Let’s play piano and make the world a better place✌️

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’m a total handy(wo)man and I’d be happy to help you with anything. I can cook, I’m pretty good at storytelling, I can play piano and I’m learning cello, but believe me, you want to hear my piano playing rather than cello.
