Even though supermarket checkout work and grape-picking jobs are no longer a mystery to me, I'll spare you the details of all the summer jobs that have helped me to make an appearance in working life :o)
Hobbies:
Travelling: Finland, USA (New York), England, Holland, Germany, Croatia, Romania, Italy, Spain.
And when I'm not globe-trotting, you'll find me getting away from it all in my comic books… Incidentally, I'm also a budding sculptor, even though I'm not exactly what you would call talented :o)
