CURRENT MISSION

I would like to consider myself as a world and life embracing writer or poet (altough i hardly qualify for those i think), but i´m always keen to meeting all kinds of new people. Make the world truly free and tear down barricades and borders.

ABOUT ME

Well. Like i said i´m a student in Tampere university, studying currently history but i´m thinking about changing that to literature (And now i´m wondering why i started description with such a trivial information). Anyway, i hope to travel as much as i can in my life, write a book or two (yeah, keep on dreaming..), fall in love with the perfect woman, graduate from university and most importantly never lose my belief for creativity of the beautiful human mind.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in humankind :) or as you could say it, peace and love (and some good music and partying of course). Polically i´m leaning strongly to the leftwing (although thats not a obstacle for me to have many friends who are much more of the rightwing) and i do some work for organizations like Amnesty International and the Leftwing students of the Finland.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Almost always everything has went almost too perfectly :) but if there is no couch available i mostly rely on hostels and the like on my travels, but if need rises i can contend so sleep on parkbench - at least there is fresh air. It´s always a much more valuable experience to meet people of different kinds of ages and who really (hopefully) share the love for travelling and genuinely are willing to help and maybe accompany you in the local nightlife. And if everything else fails, i´ll just go and sleep in a cave.

Interests

everything that the world has in it.. travelling, literature, music (rock,funk,blues,jazz,alternat ive,metal,punk,classic.. in the end i think there is no such thing as really bad music :), movies, writing, talking, chilling, theatre (especially amateur) and beer and wines of course :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Nearly suicidal scooter-ride through the traffic in Rome (i almost shit my pants, even though i am not usually easily scared :) Strange thing is that i used to fall in love at least once a week. Nowadays i think i´m becoming much more cynical and bitter - or not :) One thing i regret is that i didn´t ask the most beautiful woman in world I met in Prague couple of years ago to marry me :)
