Moi moi, welcome to my profile :-)

I'm an open minded person who likes to explore new places and meet people. I enjoy long conversations and getting to know local traditions and people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm interested in the idea of having your own local guide and travel friend. It gives you more insight to the culture and habits when you have a chance to talk with someone about them.

In turn I would like to show beautiful Finland for the travelers who are traveling here :-)

I've been a member for a couple of years but only now I actually got really interested in trying this thing. I'm newbie, yes o/

Interests

Traveling (of course), old maps, biographies, vegetarianism, nature, photography, flea markets, comics, cooking, herbs - lots of stuff!

I'm particularly interested in eastern Europe and Balkan and wish to travel there in the future.
