CONTACT Whatsapp and Telegram: +98 937 420 2609. CURRENT MISSION To see new places and meet new people to understand better the world we're living in. ABOUT ME Well, what can I say, I'm just a guy from near the Arctic Circle... I've got a good sense of humor, I like to joke around. I've travelled quite a lot and seen that it's one of the most beautiful things one can do. I've met great people on my trips, do you wanna be the next? Meet me and get to know me! PHILOSOPHY It's better to do something and regret it than not do it and regret it.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
WHY I'M ON COUCHSURFING I think that the concept of CS is brilliant. I think that a good way to get to know a country is through its people. For me seeing the life of normal people is interesting and I think CS fits this purpose perfectly. For me it's all about cultural exchange and meeting new people, rather than just free accommodation. HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING When living in Finland or another country, I try to host whenever I have time. Also, go out with my guests and showing them the city. When traveling, I try to be a good guest. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I joined CS in 2009 and have used it more or less when traveling. I've surfed more than hosted.
