Hello!

My name is Johanna and I live in Finland, more specifically in Torne River Valley, at the border between northern Finland and Sweden.
I like to spend my free time with music, books, movies, gaming and taking photographs. Photography has been my most beloved hobby since early teenage years. Back then, I used to take quite gloomy pictures, but now in my late twenties, I like to shoot nature scenes, birds and views mostly.

Music is also a big part of my life. My all time favorite musician is Patti Smith. She has been my inspiration for over 10 years and I wish to grow old as wise as she is ❤ Other favorites include PJ Harvey, KatieJane Garside, Kate Bush, Leonard Cohen and The White Buffalo to name few. But I listen to almost everything. Whatever fits the feeling. I have a decent vinyl collection of my favorites and I still buy albums to support the people behind the music! I think it's important in this modern, fastly growing digital world we live in. 😉
