About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Making the world a better place.

ABOUT ME

I enjoy politics, music, cooking and languages. I believe in social justice, political sovereignty and economical independence.
I also work and volunteer in YFU, an international exchange organization, which I believe is also a way to make the world a better place; through cultural understanding and respect.
I've co-founded a peace organization called Bright Garden Voices.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in living and enjoying the present. Thinking about the future, but never sacrificing the present. And always remembering and learning from the past!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think learning is the most important things man can do in life, and travelling is one of the best ways to learn. And if you can't travel, hosting is a great and probably also one of the best approaches to learn from others!

I enjoy surfing/hosting with people who come like a friend, who know how to be helpful and nice, open-minded and talkative people! Also clean and tidy.

Interests

Politics, geography, music, city planning, cooking, human rights, journalism, minorities, anti-colonialism, conflict resolution, Tibetan and Uyghur freedom, Finnish language, Japanese culture, Polynesia, languages in general, olives, umeboshi.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I met Cristina Fernández de Kirchner (Argentina president, whom I love) and that day was fucking amazing :).
I guess another amazing thing was hitchhiking from Italy to Armenia and everything that happened during that trip.
