I come from Vantaa, Finland, and I was born in 1989. I started judo at the age of 5, and finished at the age of 20. I travelled around the world taking part in judo competitions and camps. I won the Finnish Championship twice and once the Championship of the Nordic countries. Sports and group cohesion have always been a big part of my life. We have a really good team spirit in the

HUNKS and we have toured around Finland and outside Finland. We are really good friends also outside of the group and we go out partying and take part in other events together. The group has become a part of my family. I have been in the group since October 2010 and with the HUNKS I have been able to see and experience wonderful places and moments together with those great friends from the group.

The most memorable experience and tour trip was in 2013 to Alanya, Turkey. I really enjoyed the performing, and I tried to visit the gym 5 times a week, so it would be nice to get to the stage.

Five facts about me:

• I love travelling and seeing different places and get to know all the different cultures.
• I have a one and a half year old dog.
• I am afraid of heights.
• My favourite food is Chinese.
• I am a cinema freak (sometimes I watch more than 10 films in a week).
