I am a Finnish man in my early thirties. I have a Bachelor's Degree from the University of Helsinki, only because I was too lazy to ever begin my Master's Thesis. I also have a full-time job as a computer programmer.

As well as Finnish culture, I like Star Trek and Transformers, which should be obvious from the contributions I've made.

There might be more to come later.

[edit] Countries I've been to

	I live here.
	More times than I can count. With my family, on class trips, visiting people I know from the Internet...
	Twice, both times with my family, to the Troms county in the north.
	Once, on an Interrail trip. The visit consisted only of the Copenhagen railway station and a brief stroll outside it.
	More times than I can count. With my family, on class trips, with my former job...
	Once, on a Christmas cruise.
	Three times: on an art class field trip (it was still part of the Soviet Union back then), on a student trip, and visiting my relatives.
	Maybe five or six times? Mostly with my family, but the last two trips were to CeBIT and BoundCon.
	Three times, every time with my family.
	Once, with my family. We were there only a couple of hours, mainly to eat lunch.
	Four times, first with my family, when I was very small, the other times have been to the World Bodypainting Festival.
	Once, on a class trip.
	Maybe three or four times, with my family, when I was a child.
	Three times, first on a class trip, the other times on my own. The last trip was to BotCon Europe.
	Once, with my family, when I was a very small child.
	Once, with my family, when I was a child. This is the only time I've been outside Europe.

[edit] Random observations

[edit] ISO 5775

Now this is something new - I almost put a copyvio tag on an article that was created by its original copyright holder. Pretty embarrassing, isn't it?

[edit] My old schoolmate

I just found an article about one of my former schoolmates. All this time I had no idea he had become so famous.

[edit] Heard in a public sauna from a woman

"When talking to a man, it's good to say the word "naked" every once in a while."
