Response from my client: "Our tour was amazing, and Timo made it so. He crafted a day exactly how we wanted, at the right pace for me and my child. He was funny, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to be with. Would 100% recommend. Thank you for making Helsinki so memorable!

Timo is a phenomenal guide! He is very knowledgeable about Helsinki and adapts to our needs during the tour. More importantly, he went above and beyond by helping us retrieve our delayed luggage from the airport. Highly Recommended!!!

we enjoyed this day very much. the guide Timo told us many things about finland and about the forest we visited. there was an opportunity to drink tea and cook sausages during the walking. All followed by a delicious typical lunch in an area where it was possible to take a sauna. I recommend to everyone

So you have an old washing machine drum in your hands, and you are wondering what to do of it, Here is one example what you can try:
A fireplace to your backyard!
Picture
Cut the side open with an angle grinder and bend the sides of the opening inwards. Hammer and file them neat.
Place your kettle or pan over the drum and find out that the darn smoke has no chimney to go out in correct way...

Just after the new year's eve I got a fewer of about 38,7 degrees and deep cough. My lungs felt aching and shit was just like a big, restless fly of sparrows. First I thought that this is just a "normal" flu, but then my backbone started to be so aching, that I could not sleep in my own bed. It took about 1 - 2 weeks until the situation got better. Until then quite few people did know what was going to come...

One client wanted to have a group of Finnish Santa Claus actors to spend a week in China, visiting restaurants and delivering food for their customers. This client had an advertising deal with Chinese company that is running fast food restaurants in China. The selection of the Finnish Santa Claus guys was done, and we were part of that group!

We arrived to Shanghai Pudong airport, and after getting our bags claimed a quick change to the outfit was done in the local restroom... men were laughing, but that was of course the name of the game...
Picture
At the airport we had our first photo session in local KFC restaurant. Guess how easy it is to eat with the beard on?
Picture
Especially the boiled rice soup was creating some difficulties

Not even Santa Claus reindeer Petteri is as fast as this bullet-speed train from Shanghai to Beijing
Picture
Pendolino trains in Finland can reach max 220 km/h speed. Here in China max speed of the train was 348 km/h. These routes do of course have straight and new tracks.

In Beijing our team woke up early and had a Tai Chi rehearsal in local park.

Mama Santa was the fastest to learn the correct moves

Local newspapers were telling our story saying that the Finnish Santa Claus is very talented... yeah right!

The Canton Tower, formally Guangzhou TV Astronomical and Sightseeing Tower is a 604 metres tall multi-purpose observation tower in the Haizhu
District of the city of Guangzhou (historically known as Canton).
The tower was topped out in 2009 and it became operational on 29 September 2010 for the 2010 Asian Games.
The tower briefly held the title of tallest tower in the world, replacing the CN Tower, before being surpassed by the Tokyo Skytree.
It was the tallest structure in China prior to the topping out of Shanghai Tower on 3 August 2013. It is now the second tallest tower and the fourth-tallest freestanding structure in the world.
Picture
Nice view from the tower!

Next day flight to Shanghai and free evening in the old town area. Raining...
