About Me

Music, art and handcrafts are things I love to do. I enjoy meeting new people. I'm usually quite social and might tell one too many pun jokes sometimes. I'm pretty calm as well.

Interests

Lately music has been a central focus for me. I love improvising with my looper and creating new soundscapes. I'm also slowly building a modular synth to further complicate my life :D

Handcrafts have been on a pause for me for a while but I'm still very interested to share ideas and thoughts.

I love visiting the museums in Turku. The castle, art museums and the several galleries we have here keep me busy all year round. I would love to take surfers to some of them and share thoughts on art and history.

Music, Movies, and Books

Any music that works for me. For example: Avishai Cohen, Tipper, Opeth, Gong, Tool, Verneri Pohjola etc.

Movies that touch me are the best ones of course. Stuff like Baraka, Perfect Day and Amelie just feel right. But I go for Pixar animations and some scifi stuff too for entertainment. Whatever is good.

I don't read much but I've mostly read Terry Prachett, Greg Egan, Mark Twain and Christopher Schwarz.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming in a freezing cold lake on top of a mountain in a Natural Park in Tasmania.

Teach, Learn, Share

Yes!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Whatever seems interesting to both. I'm happy to share info on my crafts and music. If you're into bad puns then we can spend a whole night on that. Or we can have a meaningful discussion about life in general. That always lifts the spirit.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Belgium, Estonia, Hungary, Iceland, Latvia, Norway, Serbia, Sweden
