Hi there! I am Anriikka from Finland. I'm fun-loving, empathetic, calm and thoughtful by nature. I'm on an everlasting journey of learning and discovery, hoping to meet precious souls in the process.

I live in Tampere, Finland and work mostly as a primary school teacher. What I usually do in my spare time is bellydance, cooking, art, studies, garden work and renovating my home. Happy to share any of this with you!

Music, Movies, and Books

Mostly I enjoy uplifting, humorous yet thoughtful and deep movies (and books) (and music) (and people) so if you know any, please let me know! My personal favorites are movies like Adaptation, Everything is Illuminated, Scent of a Woman and Little Miss Sunshine.

The music I listen to varies from time to time, but some are here to stay! The Smashing Pumpkins, The Doors, The Smiths, Devendra Banhart, Kate Bush, Pink Floyd, Regina.

Favorite authors: Tove Jansson, Mika Waltari, Astrid Lindgren, Marlo Morgan, Sven Lindqvist, Xavier Herbert.
