Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Getting my hopes up again.
ABOUT ME
I'm really great at getting lost and back on track - both literally and metaphorically.
PHILOSOPHY
"Don't settle down and sit in one place. Move around, be nomadic, make each day a new horizon. [...] You will see things and meet people and there is much to learn from them. [...] I hope that the next time I see you, you will be a new man with a vast array of new adventures and experiences behind you. Don't hesitate or allow yourself to make excuses. Just get out and do it. Just get out and do it. You will be very, very glad that you did."
Interests
I adore voices, love to sit either at the seaside or on trees or on some Icelandic horse, I ponder over anything and nothing, and besides, I'm not willing to acknowledge that Finnish's impossible to learn for poor foreigners like me. (Sheesh, what a beautiful language!)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I spent 16 months in Finland and would love to permanently move back one day.
I'm an avid postcrosser and workawayer! In 2007/2010/2012/2018, I worked in South-Iceland which taught me an amazing lot about horses, cows, sheep, elves, hospitality, feeling humble and about what truly matters in life. I also spent some time on a beautiful farm in Norway, so I guess working with animals, plants and my hands really is what makes me happiest. :)
