About Me
ABOUT ME
I'm an easy going, open minded Finn from Helsinki. I love to travel and meet new people: I'm often hosting someone or traveling myself. Most of my time I spend making Helsinki even more fun and better place to be. That means organising for example art happenings, street flea markets, pop-up restaurants and environmental activism. I'm also one of the founders of the first vegan grill kiosk in Helsinki.
I love culture in it's all forms and always interested to experience something new. As you can imagine, I'm also interested in food and like to cook vegetarian dishes. When traveling, I don't like to plan too much: the best things usually happen more or less by accident. I'm always happy to help my visitors to make their visit the best possible one!
PHILOSOPHY
Kill your TV. Bake cake. Drink tea. Play a kazoo. Choose handmade. Love your town. Sing. Barter & swap. Write letters. Keep it wonky. Make stuff. Champion the underdog. Grow your community. Love all the people. Live your life. Be kind.
