Health is your greatest wealth - my experience with Susa's Deli (home delivered healthy meal plan service)
*In collaboration with Susa’s Deli
New Year - New me? - A cliche worth committing to!
Well hello hello hello and happy new year everyone!
Each year, there is a desire in each one of us to do a little better than we did the previous year, and in particular when it comes to taking care of our bodies and our overall health. With infection rates on the rise and new variants appearing from right and left, there’s even a deeper emphasis on health this year. Boosting the immune system is not only good for you, but actually provides protection against disease by creating a barrier that stops those nasty invaders (antigens) from entering the body. Perhaps this profound significance of staying healthy will also aid us all to not only making, but actually sticking to our new years resolutions of a “new healthier me” this year?
Many people may think that new year’s resolutions are nothing but silly cliches that people create to make themselves feel better. Personally however, I find that new years are magical. Energetically they offer us a fresh start a clean slate and therefor an opportunity to start anew and create better healthier habits. I actually once turned a new year’s resolution of becoming vegetarian into a 12 year lifestyle commitment (until I noticed I was low on iron).
You can check out their different meal plans here.
What makes the first week of January even a little more special for me, is that both mine and my boyfriend’s birthdays happen to fall on that very first week of the year. This year we were lucky to kick it off and celebrate all these festivities with a collaboration with a small family run meal delivery business, Susa’s Deli.
Susa’s Deli is a prepared meal home delivery service that currently offers three different plans: 7 days, 30 days and for two weeks. You can choose between a vegetarian or mixed meal plan. You’ll get three meals per day, including breakfast, lunch and dinner. All meals are made with healthy and nutritious ingredients, using fresh local produce and you set up the drop off times according to your schedule.
If you’ve followed me for a while (or read some of my previous blog posts), you may also know that I am really into subtle energy, and that I also emphasise Albert Einstein’s quote of “everything is energy”. The food you eat, the thoughts you think and the actions you take. Since food is a huge source of energy and an actual component of what makes you into you (a.k.a. you are what you eat) it is extremely crucial for your overall health and wellbeing to eat healthy. When we eat nutritious rich food, not only do we feel better, but we vibrate on a higher frequency, and therefor have more energy, feel better and actually think clearer.
One of the beautiful things about Susa’s is, that all their meals are home made using local produce and Finnish ingredients. You can check out their list of the producers they use here. I enjoyed all the meals, but my personal favourites were the green smoothie (pictured), veggie soup, chicken curry, mozzarella wraps, sweet potato patty pasta, quinoa salad and fish soup. Another aspect that I enjoyed about this service, is the easiness and convenience of it. Instead of spending time (money and energy) on thinking about what to cook and what to buy from the store, you have these lovely ready made meals that you only need to heat up. It also made me think how this service would be very suitable and helpful for busy people or families alike.
Another thing that felt great about this collaboration was connecting and working with another small business. When I received the first delivery, I was touched by the hand written note explaining each meal, which made it feel very personal.
Interestingly, there was a strong synchronicity of me landing this collaboration. Just a couple weeks before being contacted by Susa’s, I had connected with a customer at my Pop Up Shop who spoke very highly about Susan (one of the founders of the company) and her other services as a channeller. As it also happens, I’ve actually once had a session with her many many years ago, even before my years moving to Mexico. This made it all feel very aligned and like a collaboration meant to happen. As I am a strong believer in synchronicities (instead of coincides), perhaps there’s also reason you’re also reading this blog post… perhaps you've decided that the coming year is dedicated to changing your habits and start living a healthier life? If so, I truly recommend this service. Not only is is all of the above, but it’s quite affordable in my opinion! You can check out their website here and the different meal plans here and give them a follow on their instagram here. We all know covid-19 has been tough on small businesses, so let’s choose wisely the ones we support and buy from!
Cheers to a happy healthy 2022!

Easy VEGAN carrot cake 🥕
My favourite carrot cake recipe, that also happens to be vegan
The following recipe is probably one of my favourite desserts on planet earth: CARROT CAKE 😋The cool thing about this easy recipe is, that it’s 100% vegan and completely cruelty free, meaning it contains zero animal products in it. Extra bonus: It’s also gluten free and made without refined sugar. It’s crazy how delicious desserts you can make without any milk, butter or - wheat. This carrot cake is fluffy and quite moist and delish.
What you need (crust):
5 cups of shredded carrots
2 cups of oat milk
5 cups of buckwheat
2 1/2 cups coconut sugar
1 1/2 cups of coconut oil
1 tbsp cinnamon
1 tsp cardamom
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
Frosting:
100 grams of unflavoured cream cheese
1/2 cup vegan butter
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
3 - 4 cups sifted organic powdered sugar (you can use less)
How to:
➡️Peel & shred carrots. Heat oven to 175 Celsius.
➡️To a large mixing bowl, add oat milk, coconut oil, sugar, cinnamon, salt, cardamom and cinnamon. In another bowl, mix buckwheat with baking soda and baking powder. Then, combine these two bowls and mix thoroughly, however avoid making the batter too runny. Add shredded carrots.
➡️Add batter into a pan that you’ve oiled with coconut oil and bake for 45 minutes
➡️Let the cake cool down for at least 30 minute before adding frosting.
➡️To make frosting, simply whisk everything in a bowl and spread on top of the cake. Decorate with walnuts or shredded carrots.
TIPS to consider 👩🏻🍳:
💡Tip: so if you prefer a less moist version, you can simply reduce the amount of carrots and leave it for a little bit longer in the oven.
💡Tip: If you don’t want to use any sugar, supplement it with honey or maple syrup!
💡Tip: Do not use packaged pre-shredded carrots because they are hard and dry.
💡If you melt the coconut oil, make sure all of the other cake batter ingredients (carrots included) are room temperature.
Let me know what you think 😋
ENJOY!

Simply the best & (easiest) VEGAN blueberry pie
Easy vegan blueberry pie
It’s your Gordon Ramsey here again, hi 👩🏼🍳! Today I’m sharing with you the easiest, quickest and most delicious dessert ever 😋: vegan blueberry pie. What’s even better with this blueberry pie, is that it’s made with blueberries I’ve picked myself just by our summer house and it is completely cruelty free, meaning it is vegan and contains no animal products whatsoever. It’s also gluten free and made without refined sugar. So, with that many perks, you’d think the taste would be compromised - but it’s not, it’s divine. Yum. So without further ado:
What you need (crust):
2,5 dl buckwheat flour
1 cup of coconut oil
1 cup of coconut sugar
1 tsp baking powder
half a cup of oat milk or any other dairy free milk
Even if the weather was not the best, this pie gave us joy.
What to do:
➡️Mix flour & baking powder in one bowl. Mix sugar with coconut oil in another bowl. Add everything together in one bowl and carefully the oat milk while mixing the batter. Add batter into a pan.
➡️Prebake the crust for about 7 minutes in 200 Celsius.
➡️If you’re using frozen blueberries, add the blueberries on top of crust (you can add a little coconut sugar with the blueberries) and bake the whole thing for another 25 minutes. And voila, you’re done✨
Quick & Easy & Healthy
💡Tip: Pre bake crust if you’re using frozen blueberries!
💡Tip: If you don’t want to use any sugar, supplement it with honey or maple syrup!
💡Tip: You can add other berries in the mix as well, such as lingonberries, strawberries, raspberries… use your imagination!
You can serve it with oat milk ice cream or perhaps vegan vanilla sauce 😋
ENJOY!

Quick and easy banana bread recipe + 10 reasons to eat more bananas
You know bananas are super healthy for ya right? 🍌
Well, newsflash! They are. Here are 10 reasons to eat more bananas:
1. Lots of potassium - yup, one of the highest sources of potassium is bananas. Eating just 1 -2 bananas a day can maintain proper heart function, offsetting the effect sodium and salt have in raising your blood pressure.
2. Energy boost- Bananas give you a slow but stable energy release to the body, which is why athletes often eat bananas before working out.
3. Digestion enhancer- Fiber improves the flow of food through the digestive tract and promotes healthy bowel movements. Bananas contain loooots of fiber.
4. Vitamin B6 - B6 helps your body produce more antibodies for a stronger, more robust, more reliable immune response.
5. Prevents heartburn and stomach ulcers -Bananas do this by enhancing the protective mucus layer, which relieves pain and helps food to move faster through the digestive tract.
6. May fight cancer - There are studies that relay that entirely ripe bananas (the ones you’ll use for banana bread!), contain a compound that increases the white blood cell number and enhances immunity.
7. Stress reduction - Bananas have high levels of an amino acid called tryptophan, and the human body converts tryptophan to serotonin. Serotonin makes you feel good and relieves stress.
8. Boosts antioxidants -Bananas are an excellent source of several natural antioxidants, Specifically dopamine and catechins.
9. More Minerals + Vitamins - One medium banana contains the recommended daily intake of magnesium, copper, vitamin C, manganese and good carbohydrates.
10. Skin - you can use the peel of the skin and especially the inside part to treat various skin conditions such as psoriasis and acne as the fat of the peel has a soothing effect.
EASY BANANA BREAD RECIPE
Now if you happen to be a person who doesn’t particularly enjoy bananas just as they are, you can make a delicious and easy banana bread recipe in no time.
First and foremost I want to say that I truly admire people who know how to cook and all the creative beautiful recipes they come up with. But let’s set up one thing straight right away, I am no master chef, so I am not going to pretend to be one. This is my first recipe I am ever sharing and if you happen to be like me, not a Gordon Ramsey, worry not, I will only ever share VERY easy recipes, pinky swear.
That being said, I do enjoy baking once in a blue moon and what I enjoy even more, is eating the goodies (I’m a carbie girl). So the recipe I am sharing today is simple and quick and something my friend Emilia shared with me during our new years trip to Lapland. I decided to add my own touch to it by including some super yummie Barebells protein Milkshake to it for some extra flavour and protein. Let’s go.
What you need:
3-4 ripe bananas, mashed (the darker, the better)
1/4 cup melted butter
1 egg
1 1/2 cups oats (or flour)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
cinnamon or cardamom
Barebells Vanilla Protein Milkshake (1/2 cup)
I also love banana nut bread, so you can easily add walnuts or pecans to your liking. Another option is to add chocolate chips.
EASEY PEASY:
Preheat oven to 165 degrees C. Grease your bowl/pan.
Combine mashed bananas, and butter together in a bowl. Mix oats/ flour and baking soda together in a separate bowl; stir into banana mixture until batter is just mixed. Stir salt into batter. Pour batter into the buttered pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of the bread comes out clean, about 1 hour.
Serve with honey or butter and enjoy with a cup of tea and go bananas (sorry, I had to say that)!
I sprinkled coconut flakes on top.
Friends with businesses / badass women: Meet the Boss lady of Bär Bar
Friends with businesses / badass women: Meet the Boss lady of Bär Bar
When I first started blogging back in the day, I used to have a category called “Friends with Businesses”. As the name kind of gives it away, I will trust your judgement on what the topic entails 🤓. Now, after having relocated back to my beloved motherland, I decided to resume this category (along with blogging) and today I will introduce you guys to no other, than the badass boss lady, founder of the berry snack selling, superwoman and former study friend of mine; Jasmiina Ojala. I will from here on also initiate a new category called Badass women and this post will definitely be filed under that. Why? Well, the media (and even blog posts) play a powerful part in how we see ourselves, what we think we can achieve, and what limitations we put on ourselves as well. The more women are properly portrayed, the more women will rise up in leadership and business.
Let me tell you a couple things about Jasmiina. First of all, she is extremely friendly and smart and has a cutting edge sense of sarcasm. Not only did she graduate from the Swedish School of Economics, but she also holds a Master’s degree in Law. Oh, and in addition to being the empress of her own company, BärBar, she also is Head of Marketing for St1 and what’s even more exciting, is that she just made her biggest merger agreement yet (side note: this is her joke, not mine) and got engaged 💍! Woop woop! AND, top off that, she now carries a growing berry bundle in her belly. So, to say that things are up for Jasmiina is not an understatement. Congrats on all four things!
With that much on one’s plate and with such success, you might expect someone to play superior or perhaps be pompous. Nah, not Jasmiina. She is humble, grounded and laid back. I decided to pick her brain a little bit and present this amazing human to my fellow internet scrolling audience. Before we head over to the Q&A, you might wonder what BärBar is. Simply put, it’s a health snack bar selling takeaway smoothies made out of Finnish berries. They currently have one location in the heart of Helsinki on Fredrikinkatu 30, so make sure to go check them out. There was recently actually an article in Helsingin Sanomat about the benefits of incorporating berries and lingonberries into your diet and this is Jasmiina’s mission as well. My Q&A is written in both English and Finnish, voila:
Q: Who are you? (a weird one I know, it’s just interesting to see what comes up first)
A: I am a 33 year old mama to be for a little baby girl and I live in Helsinki.
Mama to be, superwoman Jasmiina Ojala and me.
Q: What do you do for a living?
A: My day job is working with marketing for the energy company St1. I started my career as a business lawyer but decided to swop careers to marketing, which feels more like my thing.
Q: What do you do in your spare time?
A: In addition to running my own company, I exercise a lot, go to the gym and run. As a matter of fact, I’ve actually ran 5 marathons and hopefully several more 🙂. I also love reading.
Q: What is BärBar?
A: Bär Bar is a snack bar that sells healthy and delicious snacks made out of Finnish superfoods. We make wonderful smoothie bowls (Bär Bowls), fresh porridge and smoothies made out of Finnish berries. We’ve recently added vegan oat and pulled outs sandwiches to our offerings (made out of Finnnish oats of course). Our mission is to bring Finnish superfoods into the daily lives of our customers in a fun and easy way.
Q: Where does the name BärBar come from?
A: Well, the name involved the word berry (in Swedish) and bar. In Swedish the word ‘bärbar’ means something to takeaway or carry with you. This encapsulated our idea, as we love Finnish berries and we want to provide them into the lives of everyone in an easy takeaway snack form.
Q: Is there enough time for the mom to be to work with two jobs?
A: Yes, or at least still yes. The company is co-led by me and my partner and we work on it on the side to our daytime jobs. We have a team of four lovely girls working in the shop, so we don’t spend too much time there ourselves. That being said, our aim is to grow our business and our dream would be to one day be able to employ ourselves full time.
Q: When did you decide to start your own business?
A: We made the decision together with my partner and we first started talking about it in May 2017. The first BärBar openend its doors in January 2018.
Q: What has surprised you the most becoming and being an entrepreneur?
A: It requires perseverance and that you don’t give up. It also requires being innovative and having a lot of courage way beyond what I had expected. It’s extremely challenging to find good employees and when you finally do, hold on to them as tightly as you can.
Q: Any tips to new entrepreneurs?
A: Nothing comes easy and there’s no quick fixes. If you want to become an entrepreneur, you definitely have to be more of a doer than a dreamer.
Q: Would you change anything in hindsight?
A: I would’ve been more picky with our first location (we moved from Itäkeskus to Fredrikinkatu).
Q: What have you learned?
A: SO MUCH! I’ve learned so much about brand development and marketing. I’ve also learned about customer behaviour, the logic of retail business, how to increase customer visits, the significance of location and how to grow your business and the importance of being efficient and dynamic. I’ve also learned how challenging it might be to find good employees and the value of them.
Q: Where do you see BärBar in 5 years?
A: We’ve definitely grown and have more locations than just one (including abroad) and our brand is well known and our customer experience is rock solid.
Q: What message is it that you want to convey through BärBar?
Enjoying a berry good smoothie.
A: Finnish people need to cherish and appreciate more the wonderful, clean superfoods that we have here. We think it’s irrational to bring a bunch of superfoods such as goji berries, acai berries and exotic fruit, when our own forests are filled with the cleanest and most nutritious berries in the world! Globally speaking, our forests in Finland are extremely clean and the berries growing in them are off the charts! Also from a carbon footprint point of view, it’s insanity that we keep importing exotic berries and fruit pumped with a bunch of preservatives, when we instead could just benefit from our own local fresh ingredients.
Q: What’s your favorite berry?
A: I’d have to go with blueberry. I eat blueberries almost daily and I can honestly say, that I am nearly never sick and I feel healthy. This is something that has been more highlighted during my pregnancy. Many pregnancy symptoms such as vitamin deficiency and constipation are things that can be avoided by eating blueberries.
Q: What’s you’r favorite BärBar product?
A: One More Straw and the Tender Sea-Buckthorn smoothie. They are incredibly delish!
Q: Why should people eat more berries?
A: Because of their health! Berries are filled with good vitamins, fiber and dietary minerals. I guarantee that if you eat one cup of blueberries each day (all our products contain at least 2 cups of berries!) you will notice how your digestion will improve and how flues will stay away.
Q: Are there any more BärBar and Yoga events coming up? (STAY TUNED, GIVEAWAY NEXT MON)
A: YES! And perhaps even something for new mamas.
Q: What inspires you?
A: Positive feedback and the amount of loyal repeat customers that we have. People seem to like and appreciate our concept and our products and it makes me extremely content. I hope we can make people happy. It’s an important part of our concept.
Q: Favorite Instagram accounts?
A: @myberryforest - Not only is Tiina a lovely being, but she is amazingly talented in crafting tasty, vegan dishes made out of Finnish berries. Her pictures are also pretty. She’s designed many of our products and I hope we can keep working together in the future as well. Other than that, there’s not really any other favorites, I guess it’s nice to see what my friends are up to and admire beautiful nature photos.
Q: Life slogan?
A: This is a tough one. But if we have to dig a little deeper, I guess I’d had to pick one that entails the fact that dreams don’t work unless you do. The legendary Just do it from Nike is pretty good. And then perhaps one that encourages you to not to follow the mainstream, such as why be ordinary when you can be extraordinary.
Q: Share something weird about yourself?
A: I am afraid of water fountains and I like cold liver casserole (with raisins of course).
Thank you lovely Jasmiina!
Make sure to follow BärBar on instagram here. STAY TUNED, as we are hosting a GIVEAWAY next Monday for our upcoming YOGA & BärBar event later this spring in Pranama Kallio!

K: Kuka olet?
V: Helsingissä asuva 33-vuotias, tuleva pienen tyttövauvan äiti.
K: Mitä teet työksesi?
V: Teen päivätyökseni markkinointia energiayhtö St1:ssä. Aloitin urani itse asiassa liikejuristina, mutta vaihdoin muutaman vuoden päästä alaa markkinointiin, mikä tuntui itselleni luontaisemmalta alalta.
K: Mitä teet vapaa-ajalla?
V: Oman yritystoimintamme lisäksi harrastan paljon liikuntaa, ulkona lenkkeilyä ja salia. Olenkin juossut tähän mennessä 5 maratonia ja toivottavasti vielä monta lisää :). Rakastan myös lukemista.
K: Mikä on BärBar?
V: Bär Bar on välipalabaari joka tekee terveellisiä ja herkullisia välipaloja suomalaisesta superfoodista. Teemme ihania Bär Bowleja (smoothiekulhoja), tuorepuuroja ja smoothieita suomalaisista marjoista. Nykyään meillä on myös vegaanisia nyhtökaura- ja kaurapalaleipiä - kotimaisesta kaurasta tottakai. Bär Barin missiona on tuoda suomalainen superfood helposti ja hauskasti ihmisten arkeen.
K: Mistä nimi BärBar tuli?
V: No nimi piti sisällään hauskasti niin sanan marja, baari kuin mukaan otettava/kannettava (bärbar on ruotsia ja tarkoittaa kannettavaa), mikä kiteytti ideamme, eli rakastamme suomalaisia marjoja ja haluamme tarjota niitä ihmisten elämään helposti mukaanotettavan välipalan muodossa.
K: Riittääkö tulevalla mamalla aikaa kahdelle työlle?
V: Riittää ainakin vielä, yritys on minun ja avopuolisoni ja teemme sitä yhdessä molempien päivätöiden ohella. Itse baarissa työskentelee 4 aivan mahtavaa mimmiä, eli emme itse ole siellä päivisin töissä. Toki tavoitteenamme on kasvattaa liiketoimintaa koko ajan ja unelmissa on se että joku päivä pystymme työllistämään itsemmekin yrityksessä.
K: Koska teit päätöksen perustaa yrityksen?
V: Teimme sen yhdessä mieheni kanssa, rupesimme puhumaan yrityksestä toukokuussa 2017. Ensimmäinen Bär Bar avautui tammikuussa 2018.
K: Mikä on ollut yllättävintä yrittäjänä?
V: Se vaatii vielä enemmän pitkäjänteisyyttä periksiantamattomuutta, kekseliäisyyttä ja reippautta/pokkaa kuin olin ajatellut. Hyvien työntekijöiden löytäminen on todella haastavaa ja kun niitä löytyy niin kannattaa pitää heistä kiinni.
K: Mitä sanoisit aloitteleville yrittäjillle?
V: Mikään ei tule helpolla eikä lottovoittoja oikeastaan ole. Jos haluat yrittäjäksi niin pitää olla ehdottomasti enemmän tekijä kuin unelmoija.
K: Tekisitkö jotakin erilailla näin jälkikäteen?
V: Olisin ollut vielä tarkempi ensimmäisen pisteen lokaation kanssa (Fredan pisteeseen muutimme ensimmäisen jälkeen).
K: Mitä olet oppinut?
V: TODELLA PALJON! Markkinoinnista ja brändin luomisesta olen oppinut älyttömästi. Samoin siitä miten kuluttajat käyttäytyy ja retail busineksen logiikasta, kuten asiakaskäyntien kasvattamisesta, lokaation merkityksestä, keskiostoksen kasvattamisesta
ja operaativisesta tehokkuudesta. Myös se miten tärkeää hyvät työntekijät on ja miten vaikeeta sellaisia on löytää.
K: Missä näet BärBarin 5 vuoden päästä?
V: Meillä on auki selkeästi enemmän pisteitä kuin yksi (myös ulkomailla) ja brändimme ja asiakaskokemuksemme on timanttinen ja tunnettu.
K: Mitä sanomaa haluat välittää/levittää BärBarin avulla?
V: Sitä että suomalaisten pitää arvostaa ja fiilistellä enemmän oman maan puhtaita superraaka-aineita. Meidän mielestä on älytöntä että raahaamme maailman toiselta puolelta tänne kaikenlaisia eksoottisia ns superfood tuotteita kuten gojimarjoja, acaimarjoja, eksoottisia hedemiä jne kun omat metsämme ovat täynnä maailman puhtaimpia ja ravintorikkaimpia marjoja! Suomen luonto on kansainvälisesti niin puhdasta, että siellä kasvavat marjat ovat aivan omaa luokkaansa. Samoin on CO2-päästöjen kannalta outoa, että rahtaamme lento- ja laivaliikenteellä tänne säilöntäaineilla pumpattuna eksoottisia marjoja ja hedelmiä kun voisimme sen sijaan hyödyntää läheltä löytyviä puhtaita raaka-aineita.
K: Mikä on lempimarjasi?
V: Kyllä se on mustikka. Syön mustikoita melkein päivittäin ja voin kyllä rehellisesti sanoa, että en ole melkein koskaan kipeä ja kaikki arvoni ja terveyteni on huippukunnossa. Tämä on korostunut erityisesti nyt ollessani raskaana! Esim monet raskausoireet kuten ummetus ja vitamiinipuutos on sellaisia joita mustikoita syömällä olen pystynyt välttämään täysin.
K: Entä lempituotteesi BärBarilla?
V: One More Straw ja Tender Tyrni smoothiet. Ne on aivan älyttömän hyvän makuisia!
K: Miksi ihmisten tulisi syödä enemmän marjoja?
V: Oman hyvinvointinsa takia! Marjoista saa älyttömästi hyviä vitamiineja, kuituja ja hivenaineita. Takaan että jos syöt vaikka 1dl mustikoita joka päivä (kaikki tuotteemme sisältävät ainakin 2 dl marjoja!) niin huomaat eron siinä miten ruoansulatus toimii ja flunssat pysyy poissa.
K: Onko BärBarilla tulossa enemmän tapahtumia (vink vink), kuulemma oli suosittu Chakra Tune Up meikäläisen kanssa?
V: On! Ainakin joogajuttuja toukokuussa ja kenties jotain tuleville äideille ;)
K: Mikä motivoi sinua/inspiroi?
V: Se miten positiivista palautetta saamme asiakkailtamme ja miten paljon kanta-asiakkaita meillä on! Ihmiset ovat tykänneet konseptistamme ja tuotteistamme ja se tekee minut aivan älyttömän iloiseksi. Toivon että pystymme tekemään
ihmiset iloiseksi. Se oli meille tosi tärkeä osa tätä konseptia.
K: Lempi ig tilit?
V: @myberryforest - Tiina on paitsi ihmisenä ihana myös aivan älyttömän taitava loihtimaan maistuvia vegaanisia tuotteita suomalaisista marjoista. Hänen kuvansa ovat myös aivan super hienoja. Hän onkin suunnitellut meille monta tuotetta ja toivon että voimme jatkaa yhteistyötä vielä tulevaisuudessa. Muuten minulla ei oikein ole mitään selkeitä suosikkeja, on vaan kiva seurata ystävien meininkiä ja ihastella vaikkapa kauniita luontokuvia.
K: Life slogan?
V: Hmmm, tämä on paha. Mutta jos vähän syvempää haetaan niin varmaankin joku mikä korostaa sitä että pitää tehdä eikä vain unelmoida. Niken legendaarinen, Just do it ? Ja sitten joku mikä korostaa sitä, ettei kannata seurata laumassa muita, mm why be ordinary when you can be extraordinary
K: Kerro jotain outoa itsestäsi (jotain mitä kukaan ei tiedä)?
V: Pelkään suihkulähteitä ja sprinklereitä. Ja tykkään kylmästä maksalaatikosta (rusinoilla tottakai!).
Kiitos ihana Jassu!
