Hello! My name is Henri and I come from the freezing country of Finland. I love travelling, making new friends and learning about different cultures. I believe that every person you meet can teach you a little something new . I study social sciences and tourism in the University of Lapland in Arctic Circle. I also like scuba diving, photography, art, good music, food, cinema, history, nature and everything outdoors, beer, wine.. I don't take life too seriously and I like to try new things. I am open minded and pretty much get along with anyone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to learn about the culture, see interesting local places, make new lifelong friendships, share stories and of course laugh, lay back and enjoy the simple things in life :)
