CURRENT MISSION

Trying to take things with humour

ABOUT ME

I'm from Finland and moved to Tenerife because my husband is from here. Now we have a little daughter. Before that I was living in Granada and Bilbao. I enjoy small, nice, surprising/expected things in life. Smiling and laughing can solve a lot of situations and serious attitude can ruin them....

PHILOSOPHY

I think at the end all there is, is one's attitude. There are very few occasions when it's a good idea to blaim others if something in one's life goes wrong.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I haven't really surfed on other people's couches much and I often have a flat where I can't host, like now. I showed people around in Helsinki, Oulu and Bilbao and I've met a lot of wonderful cs-people.

Interests

Could be anything, depends. Music, arts, photographing, reading, seeing new places (now that we have a child I don't travel but I don't miss it either. Allthough it was great), meeting new people, dreaming...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was in the north of Argentina about 4 years ago in winter, hardly spoke spanish and on a bus in the middle of the mountains at night I realized the bus didn't stop even close to the village I was supposed to go. The last stop was a tiny village in the middle of nowhere, cold, dark and not many people around, with no idea of hotels, if they existed and at that time I didn't know of CS. But I found a place to sleep before freezing.
