About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Kickstart my life

ABOUT ME

I'm a Southern Finland chick who'd love to have some fresh wind to blow through my brains. My principals are quite liberal and I'm interested in political affaird, but I try to live my life without a heavy heart. I'm sorry that it is so difficult to me to write a proper all about -section, just go check the ones under for more specs. :-D

PHILOSOPHY

AN EYE FOR AN EYE MAKES THE WHOLE WORLD BLIND

I try to behave for myself, but I accept that I'm no saint.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm still living in the countryside with my parents, so I can't be a great help providing a couch. I promise to do that later, though. I travel myself every now and then and I think CS is a handy way to meet new people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I just see and hear my friends borrowing their couches for strangers, and they've given me a very good image of it.

Interests

art
old-fashioned ... fashion
history
politics
puppies
birds
skeletons
food
more food like sushi
sleeping
bad jokes
linguistics
media (especially how people treat trash media, some figures of publicity I find very appealing from a sociological point of view)
not being too serious about stuff (except I totally am in some cases)

i'm really into culture studies but if I'm honest, my main focus is gained by UK, Russia and Eastern Asia

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ostrichs near my home.......

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm told to be a good company and that I make myself look like I was at home anywhere I go, which has surprised me, because usually I feel myself a stranger everywhere. Meeting people and seeing the life through their eyes is probably one of the missions I have in my life
