I’m Karla from Finland. Past two years I’ve been traveling and working abroad, in Europe and Asia mostly. At the moment I’m in Ireland before heading to see some friends in the Netherlands. I’m enthusiastic and bubbly explorer, always going and wanting to live my life to the fullest!

I work remotely in Finnish media and film industry. Interesting in photography and audiovisual arts, but also paintings and music. Love to take pictures of people and share their stories through candid photos. In the future I want to study criminology and cognitive science so I could learn more about human psychology and peoples’ minds.

Hope to connect with people and cultures! I love food , coffee and culinary things. Can’t choose favorite cuisines because I’m always down to try new amazing foods. Happy to share Finnish recipes and food. Hope to stroll your city’s best cafes!

I enjoy small things like smile, helping others, asking genuine questions. I hope to see as much as possible and meet new interesting people to open my way of thinking.

Music, Movies, and Books

At the moment very interested in Japanese literature. Haruki Murakami is one of my favorites!
My music taste varies a lot depending on the season. Jazz, blues and groove beats suits best in autumn. But also live music and techno is a great way to go.
