About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I am an adventurer, wanderer, living a somewhat nomadic lifestyle. Been on the road for last 4 years, travelling. I am a travel writer, poet and an outdoor enthusiast. And I am madly in love with my life.

PHILOSOPHY

I love life, and want to enjoy it as much as I can.. Meaning of life for me is to live life as happy, adventurous and colourful as you can, and to help others to do the same!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing occasianally and meeting people for a coffee and ending up hanging out with them a way longer!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed in couple of couches in Ireland, Hungary, Neatherlands and England so far, and totally enjoyed every second of it! I host whenever I am able and enjoy meeting other couchsurfers. And also I keep regularly surfing on my couch most sunday afternoons...and Im getting really good at it ;)

Interests

Anything and everything! I love to learn, I love to listen life stories and peoples experiences and share mine, I love running, outdoors and playing sports, I enjoy travelling by myself or with company, I love seeing different places and cultures.. I am just passionate about new experiences and ways of enjoying life! :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I just enjoy all kind of music, movies that have a point( or are totally pointless) and I do buy too many books but never find enough time to read all of them.
All time favorites: RHCP, Mumford and Sons, Bon Iver, John Steinbeck, Cormac Mc Carthy, Jack London.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To find the courage to travel alone, and all the great and wonderful things that it has led me to.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know Finnish and some not useful words in Sami language, so I can teach you some! Also I may understand you if you speak Swedish, German or Spanish or even Russian, so i can share my little knowledge of them.
I can also share my wonderful stories of my amazing life and tell you all the right facts about how is the life in freezing Finnish Lappland (and how we live in Igloos and eat polarbears for breakfast...(noooot!) And I want to learn whatever you can teach me!

Countries I’ve Visited

Brazil, Ireland, Thailand, United Kingdom, United States
