ABOUT ME

Hi!

My name's Miikka, I'm a traveler, musician, mountaineer and international businessman. Currently 24 years old, been playing the piano since I was 4 years old and now "mastering" a few other instruments as well.

Like to meet people, get to know them, chat about their countries' history, cook, play music, show some cool YouTube videos, go and party, walk around the city, etc.

In general I listen to music a lot, play often, watch football and Game of Thrones, read Lonely Planets and study maps, as well as some other fun stuff. If you'll be in Helsinki contact me hear and I'm happy to show you some of my favorite places here and go and grab a beer as well!
