**** I don’t use this platform for dating. Please be respectful ****

An enthusiastic wanderer from Finland, fascinated by new places and experiences as well as meeting people from all around the world.

I'm passionate about spending time outdoors. I especially enjoy long walks in nature, hiking, cross-country skiing and snowboarding. I was brought up in a calm and peaceful environment in the Finnish countryside. Therefore, already from a young age, I have learned to appreciate nature and it has become a place where I can fully relax and find inner peace. On top of spending my time outdoors I like to meet people and engage in deep conversations around good food and drinks. I am also spontaneous and always up for trying new things. As a mainly extroverted and outgoing person I enjoy being surrounded by people, but due to my Finnish heritage, I also value independence and spending time on my own.

I have a master's degree in Economics and Business Administration but I've always been curious about languages and I'm planning to make a career in teaching them. I think learning a language is an important way to really get to know a new country, its culture and people. Whenever I'm travelling I prefer staying somewhere for longer to have time to immerse myself in the culture, learn the language and integrate. I have found this to be the best way to see the world :)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I'm looking to connect with people around the world and make life-long friendships.
Through this platform I've already met a bunch of really great people that I otherwise wouldn't. People that are open-minded, have fresh, original and intelligent ideas as well as a lot of interesting stories to share.
Looking forward to meet more awesome people :)
