About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Surprise surprise, my main hobby is dancing...ballroom...salsa...swing...showdancing..whatever

ABOUT ME

I am a very open-minded guy with room for 2 people in our library. My wife, the most beautiful Lady in the world for me, is also my dance partner. We live absolutely in the center of Helsinki, so you will be right smack in the center of things. We are all-in on culture, meaning theatre, dance, music, night life etc...so if you want to understand the scene in Helsinki, you can get help from me!

PHILOSOPHY

Carpe Diem! Seize the moment, and seize the adventure. With my wife (yes, she is fabulous and very beautiful, at least in my eyes) we are open to what life brings!
