I am very bad at describing myself. I prefer not to be in the spotlight; I enjoy being behind the camera far more than in front of it. So I'm an introvert.

I have been told I'm calm, but spontaneous. Smart, laid-back, easy to talk to and knowledgeable about many things. A cool geek you could say.

I am willing to try almost anything once. I love to travel, learn about other cultures and study languages. Simply put, I'm open-minded and immensely curious.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

So far I've hosted over 80 people (I've lost track a long time ago) and I've had a great time meeting all sorts of people from all over the world. Both experienced surfers and even brand new members of the couch surfing community.

I live alone and I enjoy having guests and company. I also like the community and go to the weekly meetings in Helsinki frequently

Don't know where to start. A lot of different stuff. A bit of geek really though.

Movies: Too many to count. I've seen about 150 of the IMDB top 250 movies.

Music: From metal to classical, but not quite that fond of rap, hip hop or R'n'B

Books: Tolkien, Shakespeare, Juha Vuorinen, Tom Clancy and Timothy Zahn

Games: Too many. I enjoy most boardgames and I own a few + many PC games.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the world's highest bungee jumps. 220m. My first time. Why start small?

Teach, Learn, Share

Photography and cooking I can teach a little, want to learn more of and love sharing my passion in.

I am something of a polymath, a jack-of-all-trades. I know a little about a lot of things and want to learn more.

The Finnish Sauna culture.

Apparently, I also possess a decent knowledge of the world of spirits. The liquid kind, not the ethereal. =D

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a lot of experience as a host, but I have yet to really surf on anyone's couch. So I'm not sure actually.
