My name is Iiris (with capital "I"), not Liris, which at least 90% of you are calling me.

Almost 24-year-old, outgoing and adventurous Finnish girl.

P.s. Please guys note that this is not a dating site!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've always felt sorry for tourists that come to Helsinki without knowing any locals as Helsinki has a lot to offer if you just know where to find the "hidden treasures". As I travel to new cities, I'm grieving to see and feel things you can't find in guidebooks. And to be honest, I don't really fancy staying in hostel bunk beds but I tend to do so as it's one of the easiest ways to meet cool people. Now I'm willing to try something new; to share my best knowledge of Finland, especially Helsinki area and hopefully meet great people during my travels as well.

Interests

I'm a huge fan of all kinds of dogs! I'm volunteering for an association that brings rescue dogs from Spain to Finland. So every now and then I might have a foster cutie living with me!
