About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is against all odds to graduate and finally get a job I can enjoy.

ABOUT ME

Just a guy who's been around Finland quite a lot, from Tampere to Jyväskylä to Helsinki and here and there. Finally found my home & my friends in Helsinki and moved in with my girlfriend. Although I'm a student, I really haven't got all that much studying done, mostly because of being too active on student organisational activities rather than concentrating on my philology studies.

I listen to jazz/progressive rock kind of music and am a movie enthusiast, but I also like sports, so basically every sports event that's on tv, is shown through mine. I play the guitar myself, I've got few of them lying around here.

What's more? I don't mind a couple of pints with good company, and I do tend to be a bit too social at times, at least for those who like to be alone, but I get the drift quite easily, so no problem there.

PHILOSOPHY

I really don't have one, I'd rather go with the flow, but stray from it if needed.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I first came here to gain access to some sofas around the world because I was going for an interrail-tour with my girlfriend. But I'm moving to Berlin for a year after summer, and I'll probably be offering mine too once I get settled down there. Later on in Finland too, if anyone's ever really willing to come here.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A whole month of interrailing, all the great people in almost every country in Europe... It was amazing!

Interests

As I described myself, I love music, live music and movies too. And I do a lot of roller blading, ice hockey, jogging, you name it. But basically I could sit around, play the guitar for the whole evening, accompanied with a couple of beers

Music, Movies, and Books

Jazz/progressive rock, but also good contemporary stuff... Movies of all kinds and yeah, I've studied German literature quite a lot, couldn't really name all the books I've read.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So many things, or none, can't really say. Let me think about it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have been teaching Finnish and German at an upper secondary school and do still teach some guitar to rookies privately.
