Overview
About Me
Some random facts about me:
I'm a cheerful and open minded person who loves to discover new places and meet people from all over the world.
Currently I have been traveling for more than 10 months. First in SE Asia and then Australia. When I'm back in Finland I would love to host people as soon as I can and show you around the beautiful country.
I love the sea. It makes me feel calm and happy and there is nothing better than the sound of waves.
During the past few years, yoga and meditation have become an important part of my well being. If I don't do my practise I feel that something is missing. During the hard times practicing is a way to feel at peace.
Dancing at clubs is more important than drinking. I love to dance especially salsa, bachata and other Latin dances.
I appreciate honesty and friendliness - treat every person like you would like to be treated.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books
I like to listen to all kinds of music, except for heavy metal. Normally I listen to Latin beats.
Reading is my passion and I wish I had more time to read. I'm a true Harry Potter fan and have read all the books several times.
I love to watch romantic comedies and movies based on true stories. Quite often they make me cry. I don't like watching horror.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Worked as an au pair in a French-American family in Brussels right after high school. When living in Brussels I realized that there is so much in this world to see and explore. I knew I would travel many more times after this experience that put me out of my comfort xone but gave me the best moments of my life.
