Hi All! I am Iisa, escaping the finnish winter to Australian summer. I am 24 years old, I took a year off to travel and work all around Australia. I am traveling solo but looking forward to meet locals and also other travelers. I am open minded, positive, calm and easy to get along with. In my free-time I like to go the gym, listen to the music, photograph and travel of course. I also like to go out, eat out and watch movies with my friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am going to be traveling all around Australia starting from Melbourne 16th of November, and it would be great to find local hosts wherever I am. I think it is way better to get to know the locals, because they know all the best places to visit and things to do. I am curious and super interested to meet new people from different cultures and backgrounds.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to almost all kinds of music, but when it comes to movies I am more selective. I am so so afraid of scary movies. I just can't watch anything that is even a little bit scary. So dramas, documentaries, comedies and romantic comedies are my piece of cake.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Awkward finnish small-talk and knowledge about crazyness of finnish people, finnish language and the country itself.
