About Me

I'm easy going open minded explorer type of world citizen.

I'm a mix of engineer, artist, entrepreneur and dreamer.

I like outdoors, a lot. I'm developing kind of a botanical garden or dendrarium so future generations would have a nice peaceful place to enjoy picnics in the park.

I want to go to space to see our tiny planet from a distance. I also enjoy moments on Earth (: like street food and street arts.

Be grateful for are at least 3 things every day!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Its a natural thing to do. I was hosting and was being hosted before I know about CS.

CouchSurfing is an important part of my total experiences package. Ive been both last minute host and last minute surfer.

Interests

I love outdoors: exploring, hiking, gardening, building stuff, camping, fishing, swimming. I feel connected to the nature. Im interested in technology too! Ive driven and built motorbikes since I was 11. Contemporary art feeds my soul especially where creativity meets technology. Cant live too long without music (never top 40 though).

I design perfumes as one of my many hobbies: https://yahaperfumes.com/
