About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy my time while planning for the next trip

PHILOSOPHY

I've been realizing again that I got this time in my hands and I should be taking the most out of it.
Is it so that people have difficulties finding what they really would enjoy doing, and then fall into believing that the dreams fed to us by the society, media, or even families, are actually what they want? Or are we just looking for something so extraordinary we never dare to realize we're already happy?
Life is about choises, and it really is what you make of it, creating yourself all the time through the decisions you make.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well I can teach various things about finnish culture for sure. I can teach you funny things how to observe your environment the architect's way. I can teach you how to juggle balls and devilstick, but maybe not in two days unless you really have it in you.
I would like to learn more of photography and making good food. At the moment I'm also trying to learn some music theory.
