I live with my boyfriend and our two rabbits in Helsinki. I'm currently working on my bachelors in computer science, although I can't really say it's a passion of mine. I enjoy cooking & baking (vegan, NB potential guests should look at My Home - Additional Information), films, playing board games (casually), procrastinating on the internet (not sure how much I really enjoy it, but I certainly do it way too much) and of course traveling :)

I'm quite shy and content with being quiet. I enjoy listening to others more than talking myself, but try to not make the person I'm talking to do all the work. I'm kind and mean well, but don't necessarily pick up on hints or think to ask, so if there's something you want (to say), your safest bet is to just ask/tell me. Finnish culture tends to be very straight forward :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Honestly... to be able to travel more (because it's less expensive to sleep on couches) and provide the same service for others :) also to meet people, experience a more "authentic" tourism and push my own boundaries.

Music: it's difficult to say because I tend to listen to songs, not albums/artists and there are way too many to list :D The man of the house likes 80s cheesy synth music and I have a sweet spot for 90s classics (some euro dance + pop + brit pop), mostly we listen to newer music ("indie" + pop + easy rock + some house and techno + some this + some that).

To list some artists that I've listened at least somewhat to: Daughter, Bon Iver, Active Child, The Cure, Julien Baker, The Smiths, Mazzy Star, Bruce Springsteen, Gorillaz, Fatboy Slim, Martha Wainwright, The Killers, New Order
