Description

Hi all!

I'm an avid nature lover from Finland, spending approximately half of the year in the Finnish Lapland where I'm working as an outdoor guide. As I tell my customers, nature has always been my office and I couldn't imagine sitting inside all day long. Nature is my safe space, it rejuvenates me and gives me space to reflect. It's where I feel myself free.

I used to study biomedical engineering in the past, until I realised I was not happy with that way of life and started to explore what makes me happy and gives me meaning. I've been on that path ever since.

I have quite a lot of experience when it comes to travelling, too. Among other more traditional travels that I have done, I have backpacked in Australia and cycled from Estonia to Albania. Traveling broadens my horizons and makes me appreciate everything that I have. When I travel, I love to meet other like-minded people and get to know the local culture.

Lately I am more interested in spirituality, meditation, yoga and so on. At the moment I'm studying to become a yoga teacher.

I love animals. Even though I don't have my own, I am used to taking care of cats and dogs.

In general, I am open-minded, friendly, adaptable and I learn new things easily. I love doing things with my hands, for example arts and crafts, and I'd love to learn about gardening.

I'm not a fan of the crowds nor big cities but when I'm with the right company, I am talkative.

I'm a paddling instructor and outdoor guide, so all things nature are my expertise. At the moment I'm studying to be a yoga teacher and I'm interested about herbs and their healing powers, too.

I love cooking and consider myself quite good at it. I favour organic and local foods.

Animals usually love my company and I love theirs, too. I am used to taking care of cats and dogs.
