I have so many interests. I just try to mention few and hopefully add some more later.. I like doing sports, listening to music, exploring new places that I haven't visited before, watching movies(at my not so great home theater), trying(and buying) electronic devices(gadgets), reading morning newspaper while enjoying a cup of coffee(lately instant), hiking in the nature, beautiful women(well, isn't that just mark of being young and healthy?), etc.
I'd like to meet:
New people and future friends, no question about it. It is one of the greatest moments when two individuals meets and shares their own thoughts and experiences and end up enriching each other's lives. You just need to be open and sincere to yourself and to the others - that's all we need to get to know the real inner individual.

Web albums updated July 22th 2007
Music:
I have been in a chorus, played classical piano, played in a wanna be heavy band in my youth and I like to shake my parts with hip hop- and r&b -rhythms in a club so my range of music preference is very wide-ranging. Maybe even larger than life(yes I might sing along with Backstreet Boys ballads occasionally).
Hip hop, r&b, Hard rock(power rock as I put it), chill out, jazz, soul, funky, blues, classics, pop, etc. you name it!
Movies:
Various again, but let just say that it depends on the mood. Sometimes I want to see a breathtaking thriller, sometimes a brainless comedy and sometimes a tear-dropping love drama.
Television:
So many TV-series have hooked me lataly but because I can't always be home to see the show on time, I just have to buy or download whole seasons for Lost, Prison Break, Friends, Sex and The City, Oz, Gilmore Girls, Dharma & Greg, Sopranos, etc. just to mention few..
Some random TV-shows like Conan O'Brien, Dr.Phil, news, documentaries(Finnish new mainly for the guys -channel JIM totally rocks), etc.
Of course there are also many "must to see" sports events like the World Cup in soccer, etc.
Books:
I like to read but I unfortunately haven't had enough time to read books in my life - unless if it have been a must situation like examination material or so. But I'm a slave of great forces of information overload and I just try to input as much data and text in my head as my human mind is able to handle.. :D
Heroes:
Those that have the courage to do what they believe in.
Those who think and act more for others than to gain their own benefits.
Those who are always happy and sunshiny so that eventually the people near the person are affected by the inexplicable joy and begins smiling.
