Music, Movies, and Books

I like things with soul.

I read quite a lot: books are related to my interests. I have read Tolle's Power of now at least eight times. I don't watch TV really, but if do it's propably some document about nature, culture or arts. My favorite movies could be Being John Malkovich and ZOO.

I enjoy world music and I like it experimental. I like it many ways – alternative, meditative, psychedelic. Raves and good concerts. I love dancing too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Making huge snow and ice sculptures in different places – not just one... eg. Sapporo - Japan, Troms - Norway, Kilpisjärvi - Finland.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can help you to find your birth-gift creativity, if you have lost it. We can wake up the artist in you :-) I like sharing knowledge and ideas.

Although I also can enjoy my time by my own I really love making things together: walking in the forests or around the cities, cooking, making art, going to exhibitions, finding strange or random places, deep conversations, hearing your stories, learning other cultures.

I have started to cowork with sound artists and I am interested to make more "Energy on wood" -drawing performances together around a world in different places. Also snow sculpting and other seasonal art projects interests me a lot. So, don't hesitate to contact me for some wild cooperation.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cosy home stay not far from the city centrum of Oulu in the old wooden house full of colours and art. Wooden sauna experience is also available. I have a car so it is also possible also to make a trip somewhere out of the city. I also know quite a lot about cool events around.
