Millions of Palestinians are starving. Now a humanitarian ship en route to Gaza is being targeted by Israel. On board: food, medicine & 12 activists. The EU must act now to stop the aid blockade on Gaza! action.wemove.eu/sign/2025-6-...

Bangkok vibes.

On Sunday went climbing and bouldering in Helsinki. It was lots of fun but also physically quite demanding. It looks way easier than what it feels like in reality..

I have only one real experience of that- a project with the Joensuu City Orchestra back in 2010. It was fun but very challenging indeed!
