ABOUT ME University student from Finland, Jyväskylä. Currently I live in a tiny appartment in Finland, so I can`t really host people. I`m an outgoing person, I love to meet new people and try new things (like most of the people here in couchsurfing :))) I´m also interested in improving myself (this means reading books, going to different seminars, trying new hobbies, travelling abroad, taking part of voluntary work and so on..) I want to challenge myself and learn new things about me. My plan for the spring 2015 is to start to paint again and I would also like to attend to latin dance classes. Meditation is also something I really would like to try. "Life isn`t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself."
Interested in Art
Interested in Books & Literature
Fluent in Finnish
Learning English
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
This is a great way to meet new people and cities! What could be better way than have a local person showing you all the interesting places. Also as a student, this is a cheap way to keep your budget at minimum.
Music, Movies, and Books
For a long time I didn`t read anything. It felt that the study books that I had to read were enough :) Now I have started to read again and especially short, humoristic novels and self help books are quite close to my heart.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I worked as a volunteer in a local shool in northern Thailand for a month. Still can remember how scary it was to take the night train all alone towards the new adventure.
What I Can Share With Hosts
It`s interesting to share the views and opinions about life with people around the world. I hope that I can share my knowledge about Finland and show why you should know at least one Finnish person :))
My Interests
I listed some of my interest here, the order might change according my mood: - People around the world - Food & wine - Jazz music - Dance ( especially Latin dances) - Long mornings with coffee and newspaper - Nature -
