Pedersöre

"Calm, matter-of-factly and down-to-earth."

I am a 34-year-old man who lives in Esse with my wife. I have worked in recent years in the metal industry in Pedersöre and Jakobstad. Now I work in Jakobstad. I studied in Otnäs, but I knew early on that I wanted to work and live in Pedersöre area. I am originally from Forsby. In my spare time I play music and fix up our house.
