About Me

I'm a musician from Helsinki, who often gets depressed about meaningless things, but who also has learned to live with his depression and anxiety with the help of psychotherapy. I play trumpet, drums, keyboards and some other stuff too. I also compose and Arrange. I love both, watching and playing football (soccer).
