About Me
I’m a textile designer and creator who loves colors, animals, nature and everything a bit offbeat. I’ve been doing creative stuff for almost 30 years, and I still get excited every time I start a new project. I design and sell handmade and digital things — usually colorful, often a bit quirky, and always made to make you smile.
I live in Helsinki now with my daughter, but I’ve also lived in Turkey — and to be honest, I left a piece of my heart there. We both love animals, traveling without plans, and finding beauty in weird little things.
Right now I’m dreaming (and already starting!) a more natural life. I’ve turned our balcony into a mini jungle: tomatoes, sunflowers, cucumbers, herbs... and plans for making my own herbal remedies, natural cosmetics, and who knows what else. I'm all about doing things myself, avoiding chemicals and plastic, and finding joy in simplicity.
I’ve got three big dreams — and I don’t want to choose just one:
🌿 Living in a small wooden cottage somewhere peaceful, growing food, collecting rainwater, living slow.
🌞 Doing the same kind of life in Turkey, helping street animals and enjoying endless sunshine.
🚐 Or living in a van and traveling the world freely, going wherever the road (and my mood) takes me.
I’m definitely not into the rat race. I’d rather talk to trees, listen to the wind, and believe in the kind of magic you can’t explain but still feel. I trust my intuition, I read astrology charts for fun, and sometimes I just sit quietly and know stuff without knowing how I know it. I love the idea that we’re here to remember something ancient, not just survive.

Hobbies & Interests
I love to wander around fleamarkets, making crafts, travelling. I am interested in vegan and raw food but I am not a big fan of making food. I bought old camper car (RV) and I just LOVE driving around with it. I have fixed and renovated it totally, so it looks really nice now. Quite colorful and girly :) I dream about living in RV and traveling around. Maybe in future. I have been in many countries: Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Germany, The Netherlands, Spain, Turkey, India, Vietnam, Thailand, Kambodza, Indonesia, Laos, New Caledonia, New Zealand, Australia, Chile, Argentina, Morocco, Peru, Bolivia, Estonia...
I love animals. There is so much homeless dogs and cats in this world so don´t buy breed dog, rescue one.
I dream about living in old cottage or tiny home close to sea and middle of forest with big garden. Quite minimalistic life. Growing own food and having rescue animals as company. Zero waste lifestyle.

Favorite Books
At the moment I am reading everything where i can learn something. Like growing everything in balcony and garden, how to make natural stuff like cosmetics and so on.
Usually, i read when I am traveling somewhere. My bag is full of books which I have bought from fleamarkets. Detective stories or romantic nonsense, something easy to read.
