Hi! I'm Essi. I'm a speech therapist currently on a trip through multiple Asian countries and would love to meet locals wherever I travel.

I'm looking to connect with people, learn about cultures and languages and challenge my perspectives. I'm open to trying new things and tasting different foods. Not a big party person.

In my free time I enjoy climbing, reading and being in nature, especially in the Finnish archipelago during summertime.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm passionate about learning about other cultures and languages, and looking for genuine connections while keeping the costs down on my world trip. Always happy to hang out too if you don't have a couch to offer!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd be happy to tell you all about Finnish culture and traditions or even teach a bit of our notoriously difficult language!
