Me, my dadda and my lill sister who is now an Angel! Bless her soul and Love ya and miss ya much Anita! Waiting for a friend of my dad to drive me to Helsinki where I am boarding the Finn-Jet, the largest cruise-ship we had that time. It's the 18th of March 1978 ! There was the Miss Europe pageant competes going back with the same ship so that was really fun and so nice to remember. We had such a fun and lovely time at the Disco aboard, and the men got crazy Lmao. I made some really good and beautiful friends, one was Miss Island and another was Miss Greece. I remember she was going back to her country and the army was waiting for her. I can remember how much I envie her for that. We didn't had women that time yet in the army! Finn-Jet sail to Trawemunde in German where I took a bus to Hamburg the next day the 19th, there I took a flight straigth to Paris where I had Claude Berr waiting for me at the airport of Orly! Paris Voila! A new life begin, the factory and my fiance behind who I broke up with and with 4 contracts in my pocket showing a promissing future. *S* I was going to be back after those in Finland but I decided to stay! I lived in Paris for one year and during that time I went home just for Christmas and stay a couple of months in Pori, my hometown! I was engaged at that time but when I return back to Paris one day earlier than my postcard, I find my fiancee in our home and my bed with another woman! Traitor! Well we was together some time and then when I got the possibility to leave I did. They was searching for Mannequims and Models, Nordic style for Portugal, Lisbonne, and I grab on that chance. I flied there the 18th of June 1979! First with a contract for 2 months but I stay more two and two and together they made 12 years Lmao! I was working very well I was overflooded with contracts and I can be proud to say that I was one of the Top-Models in Portugal! At the same time I developed my skills and I was dancing at a Theatre there, I loved to dance and when I leave Finland I was in a Dancing Club, "Porin Piruetti" that is a club that we trained all the classic and LatinAmerican dances. Cha-cha, rumba, Paso Doble, Samba, Walz, Quick-Step, all what you need for to compet. Yes that was what I was doing, training myself for to take part of a competest. But, I was new and I had my rehearsals to perform in my first competest in April but I leaved Finland in March towrds the unknown and my new journey what would take me to my dreams. I was sad sometimes cause of that but the new life and everything was so exiting and with the enthusiasm of everything to explore I quickly forgot about dancing I had leaved behind. The new and Paris took me in the circles with my whole heart, I felt in love in that marbelous country, in Paris and in the French people who gave me their heart *S*. My life has been fulfilled with such a wonderful memories and happenings and I have known thousends of people during my path I step along with enthusiasm. I had lots of new experiences and learn much about the culture and history. I have experienced much and seen more during my life as a model and after, than many people see together in their whole lifetime. I have told so much to my children and friends and if He wants, for my grandkids one day, maybe sitting in a rocking-chair, not knitting but maybe a book and pen in my hands (it's more me) or better by the computer as I am going to be a Cyber-Granny Lololol. I am thought not expecting to have grandkids in many years yet as my girl Angelika is still 8 yo and will be 9 yo the 1st of March *S*. That is still enought for me, and my son with 21 years should live his life first, have fun and get his studies to an end and then go to the army, get a job and only after he has settled his life down in good conditions he could think of that, I do not wish that for him yet. What will I tell you more, I have so much to tell that if I start to write a book I will still be writing it after 30 years lol. I must say that I have had a very rich life and fullfilled with wonderful events and others not so wonderful, so I have been living from edge to edge. My son was born in Lisbon, Portugal 11th September 1982! His dad was in a disco and as I guess with another woman as that wasn't strange for him as I learn to know with time! I lived together with him and thank God we never got married, well 10 years and mostly because of my son, and NOT because of love! No he destroyed about 9 years of my life, I mean the father of my son, he wasn't faithful, and he was mean and bad. He was violent and abusive! I had enought of him when I knew that he had ordered a gun and was about to kill me, Igot in very much hurry to leave. I manage to do that with the help of My parents, the Finnish Embaixador and Anja, a finnish woman and friend that worked at Finnair. I manage to get out from there in life with my son, so I know what "Running away" means and frightened to death!! I don't wish that for anything for anyone to go thru what I did! I am happy today and Grateful for the gift of to be in life and for my children what is my jewels and my strenght to live! Today my life is to be unemployed but still active thru the web and I've got so many wonderful friends. My health hasn't been to good and I have been very ill and made a couple of surgeries, survived from cancer and had Hyperthyroids so I must say that I have more luck than many! I got a wonderful daughter at 1st March 1995, I lived together with her dad two years but at the end our relation stopped before my girl was born! He has been a s..t and he hasn't even seen his daughter until this day! But I am saying that my girl is quite lucky with it, I don't speak bad of him and she can do what she want's when she is grown up, if she wants to meet him I can just help to find where he is and that is not difficult *S*. But for her sake I hope she never does that, cause she will be dissapointed with him, I know and I feel that!

Joze-Luis Ardiz, choreographer, & Antonio De'Cabo, tecnik of lights, Carmen from Madrid, Mamy from Lisbonne & Me (at the left) at a coctailparty in "Bibicas" pub in Lisbonne! That was my new Wolfcoat I bought what I got robbed from finally =((. Today I don't mind as maybe it was the faith as I am an activist in Enviromental matters and also to preserving specimens, animal and vegetarian. I support all what can preserve our globe from to be destroyed or the animals to be hunted until there is no one rest!!! For me Mother Earth is the most importante in my life!!
Bryan, he was my Teacher at the Mannequimclass I took in Lisbonne, it was the second one as I had from Finland also, it helped me to get known in Portugal and to get work *S*. Bryan was or is English and he teached at the "English Theatre" of Lisbonne =)). That was fun cause actually I teached there more than learned, he teach so similar, with the same tecnik that I allreday knew from my school here in Finland *S*. He was a gay and this was a gaydisco where we was having the party lol. It was the carnevaltime and there was that nights competest named "Vampires" Me and Bryan went there as a couple lol, The Beauty and The Monster lol, of course we wonned that evening, a big bottle of Whiskey, entries to the disco for several months and something more that I can't remember. *S* Those carnevals in Portugal ws so fun and that make me a desire for life, that I could take part of the Carneval in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil one day=)). Did you knew that they prepare the carneval in the sambaschools for 6 months? The rest of 6 months they work. Gosh I would like to know how they manage to live like that and still get those very expensive costumes to wear?? Eternal question!! I can't help but I feel that my blood is more hot than usual for people who lives in Finland and are born here, in some way I don't feel me athome here. I feel that my blood will get me out from Finland once more and that time it will be for life! In my plans is that I am going to move to USA when I have my situation in that way that I can. Some money and also a perspective of work and the green card, I must try the lotery lol. But that is for sure, I will not stay here in this coldminded country, I need something more than what Finland could offer to me! Well that's me and I am never content Lmao! Some how you can't envie my life but yet you can, as I have experimented so much in my life of 45 yo than many do in their whole lifetime! I am also grateful for all skills I have been gifted with, I feel that I can be proud of myself and have respect for myself. I am quite artistic I must say and when I came back to Finland I was living again with my full heart, the wildness of karaoke arriwed here in my hometown Pori, Bear Castle freely translated, at 1991 and the first one was with cassetes and with a printed text, lol. I started to go and sing and then the laserkaraoke arrived and I was also offered a work in our Chinese Restaurante here to work as a Karaoke Hostess, and I was for a half year. I loved that job but then they took one who wasn't that expensive as I was (and I wasn't) Before that I was working as a nurse in a home for old people. That I was also doing later on and that was in the year when I got pregnant of Angelika *S*. At that same time I was acting in the outdoor summer-theatre at a play for children. I had 3 rolls there, as a singer between the acts, a doctor and a sircusdirector lol. I was also actively in a choire, a big one and the best in town *S* KatajaKuoro. We had a fantastic director back then, "Ognian Vassilev" and with his assistante and wife "Mira Vassilev", I have nothing else to say but that he was fantastic. Later on they have founded their own choir "Tempori" but I have never been attepted to join any of them any more.. I was singing there several years and the last times I performed with them it was the Christmas Concerts at 1994 and I was big then, gosh, I got Angie the First March the next year. We had concerts in other town's churce's, 6 of them *S*. That was the end of my singing in the choir and also for the theatre as I didn't had time anymore and I haven't since then. I start to paint more when I was pregnant with Angie and I did some works, very colorfilled Fairytale paintings, and I also wrote lyrics and poetry at that time very much. I also tryed to study the Italian and Russian languages here by myself. Italian I can say that I am able to understand and speak a little but today I have forgotten all what I learn about Russian lol. I love languages and therefore I know some as Swedish, English, Portugues and also with Brazilian style, Spanish, some Norvegian, French what I study also at my last 3 years at the school. English I have study for 8 years and I have also teach that for youngsters privatly in Portugal and here in Finland I had a course for the beginners *S* I am not saying that I am a teacher but I have skills to teach elder people so they understand and can pronunce English as they should and not in a Finnish way that I hate most than anything lol. I learn the most years my english at school with an English native teacher, a real old fashion gentleman *S*. I am so gratefull for that and also can say that I am pretty good at it ;)) or what do you say? Lol. Now in these days I dedicate my time to our onlinegroups, one that I am a founder of, SCA, Simply Caring Angels what really was founded by my best online friend Mary from Florida *S*. We are very quicly heading for One Years activity now, in September we had the 6 months anniversary *S*. Other groups I am envolved with in the web is: , LOTH, Ladies Of The Heart, both where I have been a member for nearly 2 years now *S*, I pertence in the Scandinavian Region # 23. Also I had an MSN Comunity a Finnish one where we had 50 members but that ended in year 2001 in September! I started another one UTR also finnish one and we are a community with not much members but all are good friends. I am not very dedicated to it, sorry for that! I also am member in WOSIB and I was first an Angel in the AngelGarden but then it changed so very much so I get out from that garden and I am just remaining as a webringmember there *S*. They made me some lovely birthdaypages there, Thank you Karen *S*. Another Onlinegroup where I am a member for a year nearly in the WelcomingCommittee, a greeter, still today, is AOC, Angels Of Compassion, I Love that group, I love the founders and I love the members there, they are all as my bro's and sisters online =))). They are remarcable, I remember Lady Elina with warmth in my heart, a wonderful friend and sister, but also you all who are founders and leading with such hard work with wonderful results today, Thank you all from the bottom of my heart *S*. Mostly still I dedicate my time with SCA but now I have been more resting as I had a surgery at the 3d December and that is still healing so I must take my time to heal. I am on LOA with nearly all groups I am in so I can take the rest that my body needs. We have also had some dificulties with our webconnection, with our internetcard that was broken, then the main computers crashed, and now we are offline just because our Internetprovider doesn't have connection, aarrgghh, this can be so frustrating!! We are down right now because of that and I haven't been in online contact with anyone in nearly 3 days now, and I really hate this!!
Look at this view, isn't it beautiful *S* This is Finland, The Land of the thousends lakes and the midnightsun at the midsummer. There is also one attempt of me to surf Lmao.
