Live the life fullest for yourself, no matter what others think
I am from Finnish countryside, where I was able to spend time outside in the nature. My favorite things were swimming, sailing and climbing trees with my sister. I was usually the one who caused grey hair for my parents. I wasn’t very calm kid 😀
Active lifestyle has always been part of me. For me it is important that I treat my body well in order to explore the World in the way I want. Doing sports also give me energy and makes me feel good. For me, different challenges keep me mentally healthy and I am very enthusiastic about different cultures and untouched nature (which is very rare to find nowadays).
I have done my conscript service in Finland and working in the Finnish military. I have always been seeking challenges through the work as well, searching action and changes. I never listen people who doubt me if do something, for example military service as a woman. I live my life for myself, not for others.
After my military work, I started to do sports as a work as well. I studied Personal Training and graduated one year after. I worked in a gym and helped people for healthier lifestyle. But after years, I needed to challenge myself again and change something. I applied to University. After doing my masters studies and graduating from University in Finland, working more and more in the office, I noticed I make more money but money doesn’t make me more happy. The happiest moments I have experienced, are when I have finished very physically and mentally tough challenges or I have seen very beautiful places in nature. And that’s why I want to keep going as long as I can.
While I’m doing adventures, if I manage to inspire especially other women to start their own adventure, that’s the point when I have succeeded in my life.
