Hello!

I'm a 31-year-old living in Espoo with my spouse, both originally from the backwoods of eastern Finland. I'm mostly an introvert, and also pretty down-to-earth, witty person, or at least I'd like to think so. :P I love both the quiet of forests and exploring big cities, although preferably avoiding the worst tourist traps and crowds. Haven't done much traveling lately, but we're planning our next trip. My hobbies at the moment include learning Japanese, playing computer games, cooking, looking for new food experiences, and taking care of our Icelandic sheepdog.

Dancing.

Dogs.

Languages, linguisics. Like to learn new words.

Landscapes that have something new/weird/astonishing/beautiful in them.

History in general. Evolution - of life, societies etc.
