About Me

Why do I travel, you ask? Well, what else is there to do, I ask you back!

Meeting new people, seeing new places, eating exciting foods and throwing yourself into all kinds of adventures are the reason I am on this little Earth of ours. There is always one more country to see and I can't wait for another day and another place!

I am outgoing and flexible, there isn't that much I'm not ok with. I just need a meal and a good night's sleep and up for pretty much anything :)

I really got into traveling through my wife Nora Ylilammi (https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/nora-ylilammi). From the time we met, we have been consumed with finding the next place to visit and figuring out how to get there. We've lived abroad, sometimes even in different ones. These experiences have made us a strong team that keeps searching for the next big thing to conquer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have to admit I'm kind of late in the game when in comes to couchsurfing. I also have to admit that the primary reason is that it's a good way for saving money on accomodation. Couchsuring is also one of the best ways to meet new people who can in turn show you what the locals do, eat, drink etc. And at the end of the day, that's what's traveling is all about.
