About Me

CURRENT MISSION

studying ocean currents and baking biscuits

ABOUT ME

Hello. I am in Finland. I’m a 20-year-old Finnish girl about to start geography studies in University of Oulu. My past includes a happy childhood, twelve years of education, Au Pair year in the United States, and some working to earn money for future travelling and studies. The year 2011 I started by moving into another country, Ireland, where I worked as an Au Pair for seven months. Now I swear, I am not going to do this Au Pair thingy again. Not that my experiences were bad, not at all. Things change.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is sweet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am ready to help out people exploring the sweet world of ours. And I'd be extremely delighted to get a little of that back.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far I've only attended one CS meeting in Dublin which I think was absolutely great. Met lots of fun new people. Excited to experience more of this whole couch surfing thing.
