Lifestyle

Our family really loves to travel! We try to find the real local people and their way of living, something autentic in every country. We are not so keen in lying the whole day on a beach and shopping T-shirts. Our kids are used to be ragged out to the museums and historical monuments since they were small. We also hav a modest summer cottage nearby, which we use unfortunately far too little. Pekka's dream has been for a long time to have a boat in the local lake and the dream came true last summer. It's possible to stay over night in it and there's also a fridge and a cooker.
At home we love to cook and try recipes from all over the world. We parents made a food and wine round trip to northern Italy last year and it was amazing:D A big part of our family life we spend taking our son Toivo to his tournaments around the southern Finland.
