I am a 26-year-old Finnish traveler. I quit my job last September and since then I've been exploring the world.

I traveled for a year on my bicycle. I started in Belgium and cycled to Africa, following the west coast for 7 months all the way to Guinea-Bissau, from where I returned to France and began cycling toward Southeast Asia.

Unfortunately, due to the global situation at the time, I got stuck in Armenia with my bike because all the borders around me closed. I left my bicycle in storage at a friend’s place there and flew to Nepal in August, and since then I have been backpacking in South Asia: Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and now India.

Next June, my plan is to return to Armenia and try to continue my journey eastward by bicycle. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people, have meaningful conversations and good time. I also travel on a budget, so it's nice if I can save money on accommodation :)
