Wow! What a ride! I joined Nokia more than 5 years ago as a summer intern and I was, and still am, completely passionate about working in the digital field for the company. I’m sad to leave all the great friends I’ve met during these amazing 5 years at Nokia! It’s been an honor and pleasure to work with you.

I feel it’s about time to do something else and in a different environment. I’ve always dreamed about moving abroad and living in another country and experiencing a different culture. Salomon offered me a position in their digital team as a marketing communications manager. When I received this amazing job offer I couldn’t resist! This means I’ll be moving to France,  Annecy during the end of November. I’m really stoked about the opportunity to work for a company that is close to my heart.

I would also like to use this opportunity to thank few people who has helped me during these amazing 5 years. Firstly Arto Joensuu, you have been the one that has believed in me and offered me the possibility to show my competences! I’m grateful to have you as a friend; thank you so much. Jussi-Pekka Erkkola it has truly been amazing working together with you for the past 4 years. There is no other person with such a great pool of knowledge and understanding of digital than you. I’ve learned more from you than from any school I’ve gone to and really appreciate that! You’re a true friend! Just to name few others: Dan, Jussi, Solja, Russell, Mikko and Helena, without you I wouldn’t be here today, so once again I’m really grateful what you have done for me. Also not to forget some great agency people I have had the privilege to know: 1000heads, Luxus, Futurice, Dicole, R/GA, N2 & FarFar (rip) I love you guys!

I’m also setting up a new blog where me and Katja will be covering the life abroad in France. It’s called forgetfinland.com (thank Stefan for the name) and no its not about forgetting you guys, it will be about making comparisons living down there.
