Hello! I am a tourism, culture and event management professional with a master's degree and I have a tourist guide certification as well. I am a native Finnish citizen with a heritage of 50 % Sámi (indigenous people of Finland): I was born in Northern Finland, in Kuusamo, but later I moved to Helsinki for work. Today I have 2 home towns: Helsinki and Kuusamo - conducting excursions on both locations! Welcome to visit my home house, so called original 'front men's house' in Kuusamo, which was built by my grandfather in 1952, who served in the Winter War and Continuation War 1939-1944! There is a traditional sauna built in 1962 located just 1 meter from the beautiful lake shore scenery, which is available for your private sauna experience. I love to travel myself a lot: I just returned from Thailand. My interests are studying world histories, heritages, different cultures and arts. Sports like swimming, slalom, walking tours, and bicycling belong to my healthy lifestyle. I work in the event production and in the cultural projects in cooperation with various local and international organizations and groups. I own a white 1966 Buick Electra convertible car and a full size premium car BMW 320, which is emission compensated by the insurance company. I am a professional driver as well. You are welcome to my special tours with my museum car: it is registered for 6 persons, so even 5 guests can fit in the car. During the shore excursions, you are able to have some drinks while enjoying the open air and admiring the sights, art nouveau districts, and Nordic architecture of the city. We can stop by the local beach or "kota" (the Finnish fire shelter in the woods) for a picnic, and visit various historic sites (Unesco and cultural heritage), galleries and museums. For the couples on their honeymoon, I am delighted to arrange a romantic day to celebrate your wedding. All my tours can be customized based on your wishes! My strong background in customer service means that I always put my customers first: Their needs and expectations are the most important to me. My clients can rely on, that what has been agreed will happen and if any problems or questions will occur, my job is to resolve them. When it comes to tour planning or to your special event inquiry, do not hesitate to contact me if there are any issues. We will find the best solution regarding your available time and need!
