I'm lucky: no phobias. I feel mild discomfort in the middle seat rows of a 747 if that counts :P

Yes. It's too probable. Whether we'll ever contact it is a harder question.

A favourite restaurant is really tough to pin down. In Helsinki, the place where I'd love to go for special occasions is Kuurna. Then again I have really fond memories of restaurants which is also down to why/when I was there: Salt Tasting Room in Vancouver, Kaz Sushi in Washingon D.C., Oda in Tirana or Näsinneula in Tampere. For me, Amsterdam's current number one is In De Keuken for a really nice modern fine-dining experience.

Back when I was a kid I would've said The Mariana Trench and it still ranks pretty high! But these days fascination comes from a mix of people, animals, history and the environment so it constantly shifts. World Heritage sites hold a special significance for me. Right now THE place is still Amsterdam, for obvious reasons.

Didn't you love as a kid all those "Q&A booklets" (slämäri in Finnish) that were passed around school? You got to answer all sorts of weird questions. That's the main appeal here I guess :)

Tappavan vaikea tämä kysymys, mutta aika antaa tuomio - in no particular order:
JJ: from africa to málaga

Very difficult. I pick three personally greatest goals I've seen while watching football. Greatness comes from the drama as well: late goals all three.
3) Ryan Giggs scores a late goal in the FA Cup semifinal against Arsenal in 1999. Brings the ball past from his own half and dribbles past four defenders. Magic.
2) This one is a bit of paradox. I hate Rivaldo, but the goal that took Barcelona into the Champions League on the final minutes of the season in 2001 was an amazing scissor kick: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yjVMASe9gYI
1) Iniesta scores against Chelsea after nearly two full times of depressing anti-football by Chelsea in the Champions League semi-final in 2009. The commentators reactions in this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIrg7CFy2T4 tell everything, but Virkkunen says (or screams) it best: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9N9njMCfaUo -
Yksittäisistä projekteista HS.fi/mobiili - koko tiimi lähti hommaan todella epäilevinä. Uskon että homman haastavuus vaikutti lopputulokseen paljon, koska jokainen ratkaisu puntaroitiin läpi tuplatarkasti.
Yleisesti haluan oppia kuuntelemaan ihmisiä paremmin, koska tiedän että olen monesti itse paljon äänessä. -
Tough one - if I answered in Finnish, I'd probably quote my favourite poem, Eino Leino's "Smiling Apollo". I'll just go with a motto I ended up living with: "For a Finer World". Be Good.

Fund a few startups, enjoy the benefits on geo-arbritage and see the world for a while as a traveling consultant/blogger/editor-at-large, but not really change my lifestyle. Money gives you options, much like being in a good physical condition.

Xbox 360, koska voit haastaa minut :) (lisää kaveriksi Vince Majestyk, jos ostat)

I've thought about this in serious terms, as I have friends who have strong allergies. I spent a while avoiding a lot of ingredients, but luckily that is past. Seafood, I guess, in any well prepared form would be really hard to let go. So - seafood risotto it would be, prepared my style.
