There is one room and a kitchen at my flat. My guests can sleep in kitchen but there's abit more room in the other room.

I have a rather small flat. But then again I'm sure that there's still enough room for friends.

I don't have pets, but I'm not allergic and don't mind if you happen to travel with one.
If you smoke you have to do it outside.
Here's got no sofas to sleep on but I've got some mattresses, blankets, carpets so that sleeping on the floor. Bring a sleeping bag or sheets with you.

What do these numbers mean?

This summary is not a replacement for reading references; it's a quick summary to help you get started. At a glance, you can see how many references a member has, and how many of them are positive, neutral, and negative.

In the second line, you'll see how many references came from people who hosted this member, surfed with them, and traveled with them. These numbers won't always add up to the total: some references are not categorized, and some may be categorized as more than one thing.

When viewing this summary, don't jump to conclusions! Things that are negative for one person may be positive for another, and vice versa. It's important to read references carefully and evaluate what that information means to you.

Annika has couchsurfed us several times and never has she been an invisible quest (never has she tried to be one).

Although she's been a friend of my brother for a long time, we only really met at Tampere. Better later than never!

Annika, Eveliina & her baby visited me last November! sorry about the later reference. We had great conversations, my daughter really enjoyed and remembers discussing different Xmas traditions and Santa Claus, etc. They are lovely people and were a pleasure to host.

One of Kant's "little rays of sunshine". She's just so lovely! She's kind and charming and guaranteed to make your stay in Tampere a pleasant one.

Annika is a great person. She is a good friend of mine and I warmly recommend visiting or hosting her. I have travelled with her many times and never has she disappointed me.
