Overview
About Me
I am traveling together with my partner Viki so this profile is for both of us. We just finished our exchange studies in Prague, Czech and Gdansk, Poland and now we are on our way back home to Finland. We're quite new to Couch surfing but very curious about the connections we can find from here! We're dreaming about doing a longer bicycle trip at some point.
I’m an overall curious person who enjoys creating, learning things, listening and telling stories and communities. I’m studying fine arts in Finland focusing on filmmaking.
About my partner: Viki is very enthusiastic about wool and handcraft. She enjoys being in very green parks and forests. She's fluent in Finnish, English and Finnish Sign Language - and is very open to tell more about the Deaf culture (She is hearing though)!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
