About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am trying to understand how precious is each day and each moment of this life of ours!

ABOUT ME

I am an easygoing fellow and I live now in Spain, at least a few winter months, and I shall return to Finland for the summer to a small hamlet of Björkboda. I made a round the world trip starting November 2009, and was back in Finland April 2010.
My route was: Helsinki-Hongkong-Bangkok-Koh Samui-Bali-Sydney-Melbourne-Auckland-Tahiti-Hawaii-Seattle-Los Angeles-New Orleans-Miami-San Juan-Santo Domingo-St.Maarten-Bermuda-Azores-Cherbourg-Giverny-Paris-Helsinki.
In Santo Domingo I embarked aboard a sailing boat, s/y Helena, and sailed over the Atlantic.

some Greek folk dances.
