Free-time activities

Every day, I love to spend quality time with my family. Every week, I try to play cricket and badminton. Now and then, I contribute to national and cultural communities through organizing learning sessions for kids, sports activities, and events. During summer, I love bicycling and walking into the Finnish forest. Occasionally, I like to take still life photography and make a special burger with caramel onion.
