Current Goal

Lähtöpaikkani Olhava (Suomi) on matalaa aluetta. Vie minut korkeisiin paikkoihin ympäri maailman. Kalliot, vuoret, kaikenlaiset tornit ja korkeat rakennukset kiinnostavat.

 

My starting point, Olhava (Finland), is a low-lying area. Take me to all kinds of high places around the world. Crags, mountains, all kinds of towers and tall buildings are interesting.
