Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I think real, authentic meetings between people are valuable. By hosting other people you open not only your door but your heart to the world, trust in the goodness of people. It simply makes me feel that the world is a good place. The best couchsurfing experience was when I stayed in Utila, Honduras. I plunged into the lives of people who had a totally different lifestyle than I. I'm so grateful for the experience and will never forget the kindness of the strangers that are now my friends.
Music, Movies, and Books
Haruki Murakami is my all time favourite writer and I love all his books.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I can tell about the Swedish speaking minority in Finland, very few know that this is a country with two official languages. I also like to bring something to the host, something Finnish if I'm travelling aborad and some wine if I'm travelling in Finland! I can also cook or bake, some Finnish cinnabon buns for example!
My Interests
I'm interested in NGOs and social businesses; making this world a better place.
