About Me

CURRENT MISSION

School of life. My mission is simply to travel, see, learn and experience.

ABOUT ME

A Finnish girl eager to see and learn. I am nice and easy to come along with, open minded and up for trying new things. I don't give up easily and I must admit I am little competitive. I like sports and i think spontaneous ideas are the best ideas. My two favorite things appear to be piggyback ride and whipped cream. And I am a dreamer and wanderluster.

PHILOSOPHY

Lot of wisdom we need and fist full of craziness to survive until tomorrow and over it.
(Dodgy translation of a phrase by Lassi Nurmi)

To die will be an awfully big adventure.
(Peter Pan, and no i'm not suicidal)

One day baby we'll be old.

It will mix up in your stomach anyways. (food)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have had a great experience this far, with some bad luck mixed in between, since it doesn't always go as in the script.. However I have been showed what real couch surfing spirit is, and i can't wait to experience more!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed to a top of sand dune in Sahara, at night, in the moonlight, with amazing people.
