CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is to sing as much as possible and that way make myself and other people as happy as possible!

ABOUT ME

The translation for my name "Kerttu" is "singing bird". So in my case "Nomen est omen" is true. I love singing and music in general is very important to me. Anyway even more important to me are other people, my friends, family and all of those who have somehow become even a tiny part of my life.

I've only lived on this planet for 29 years, but still I have experienced some things that have made me realize that I really truly love life now, love living, love doing things people can do while they're alive. And that's what I want to do.

PHILOSOPHY

Why would I leave something for tomorrow if I can do it already today?

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to participate as a surfer, as a host, as a guide and just as a person to hang out with. In every way possible i guess? :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't yet been couch surfing nearly as much as I would have been wanted and am planning to in the future: just once in New York and once in Berlin and once I hosted a wonderful Hungarian girl Timi here in Helsinki. Most of all I've met a lot of surfers while travelling and when my friends have been hosting people. All of this has been so great that it has only kept me wanting more! Looking forward to it!
