About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn to like vegetables and body fitness lessons

ABOUT ME

I teach Finnish as a native language in Tampere Vocational College. I've been working for the last two years, and before that I studied at the University of Tampere.

I'm easy-going, super talkative and lively. I don't panic easily and I'm usually very practical. I enjoy long conversations with friends, travelling (naturally...) and good wines. I do yoga, I dance, I read and write books... I have many hobbies. And dogs! I adore dogs! But sadly, I don't have one yet.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm an optimistic realist: I KNOW everything will be just fine.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love movies. I watch all kinds of movies, except James Bond. M. Night Shyamalan is my favourite director, American Beauty is one the best movies ever made, and I also love animated movies, such as Shrek and some Disney movies (Mulan is the best!) Mostly I listen to power metal music, such as Rhapsody and Blind Guardian, but I also like rock, and even classical music. I read a lot, and I also write myself. I haven't published anything, though.
