Meaningful tasks and challenges with kind, humorous, inspirational and hardworking people in a culturally rich and diverse environment. I will be extra happy if the weather is warm and the sun is shining. I feel good around animals, in particular dogs.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

Since I am a freelance journalist, I can write and come up with different articles. I also manage to take quite good pictures. I have been a journalist for over 20 years.

I have a past in music business as a singer with my own band. I also had a small record company with my ex-husband. We played afroamerican roots music - from lullabies to rock'n'roll music and toured in Scandinavia. We made one record, which I produced. Then we divorced.

I have very good social skills, I get a long with people of every kind. I am very social, but I also enjoy my own company. I am independant, hardworking, fast thinking and trustworthy.
Usually I am the leader of the group or I do things by my own. I speak quite frankly (and kindly) and people say that I am quite funny. I like to joke with words and get everyone in good mood. I have a positive mindset. I do not give up easily either. I am loyal.

l love languages and different cultures. I am a very curious person, curious to new places, customs, food, people and way of being/thinking.

I have travelled quite a lot, mainly in Europe and USA. My mother tongue is Finnish. I am bilangual; I also speak Swedish and of course English, which has always been easy for me (I have been an au-pair in the USA when I was in my twenties).

I love French, which I speak some and like to learn more. I just came home from Lyon, France, where I spent one month within Erasmus project. I was "learning on the job" in a school called SEPR Groupe, in their communication service. I traslated some videos from French to English and Finnish. By doing so, I learned a lot more French.

Currently I am studying my second year in audiovisual media, that is why I had an Erasmus project. This was my second Erasmus project this year. Previously I was two weeks in St Gervais D'auvergne making videos at LPA Des Combrailles. That school had a lot of different animals.

Since I have been a single mother all my life for twin girls, who are now 18 years of age, I know how to multitask and work hard = endlessly. I am used to taking responsability on my shoulders, and my shoulders only - all the time. I am not afraid of that. (I am strong both mentally and physically).

Luckily nowadays life is easier, since my children have become adults. And I enjoy this time of my life: I can start travelling and exploring the world again!:).

I am quite a physical person (I play tennis - I also have taught tennis for beginners, go to the gym, swim, walk with my dogs). I like to be active. I like to get things done, but I also know how to relax and enjoy life. Usually I need some time daily in the nature, walking in the forest with my German shepherd and Brasilian terrier. When I see the sea, it relaxes me more. A sunset is always a must see if I am out then.

I like animals, especially dogs. I have also a past with horses. I spent my youth with them; riding and taking care of them.

I am not a "princess" type of a woman. I have no problem getting my hands dirty.
I am also an excellent driver. I have driven cars a lot abroad, but backing with a trailer might be a different story... I still have to practise that.

I think that I am good at planning things and thinking ahead. Security is always my top priority as well.

Autres infos...

I love art, colours i general. Music is very important to me. Nothing beats a great artist at the concert!
I have a special connection with animals, I respect them and adore them.
I am a quite intuitive person and I know myself quite well.
I can be quite stubborn, if needed, but flexible as well.
I got a lot of patience and I am a people person, not a computer person.
In my opinion, every human being has a story to tell.
