About Me

CURRENT MISSION

eat ice cream. be happy

ABOUT ME

My passion is studying pychology. It's intresting to read something and then perceive those things in a real life. I'm especially intrested child development and hope to work with them some day. I believe that psychological knowledge helps to understand ourselves better and also other people, which makes things much easier. I want to belive that if the things are not going the way you at first planned, there is always some reason; when one door closes, another opens. I'm not good planning things and I am too often late because of trying to do too many things at the same time. I get excited easily and I am intrested to experience new things. Smiling,friends, nature, our summer cottage, travelling and family are important things for me. Coffee or wine and intresting conversation is the best thing I know.!

PHILOSOPHY

Happy thoughts will guide my way

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Volunteering. I'm visiting old people's home once a week. I play cards and read books with these older ladies. That's the most rewarding thing what I have done.

Night train from Moscow back to Finland was unforgettable experience. The people in the same cabin were so nice and we had a long intresting talk about russia today and russia before. We didn't drink vodka, but these people had couple bottles of whisky and delicius food with them and they offered all for us also. The legends about the breadth of the Russian soul have really a very good reason to exist.

I made my first interrail by myself and it was the best thing i've ever done. I am so happy that i left travelling alone, it really was that good. So many good memories and great people. There is nothing more to say.
