Aksana Kurola
(Finland) - Journalist
Aksana is a journalist in Finland.
"When I take a deep breath I feel myself happy and free." Aksana enjoys this feeling every day because she tries to spend as much time outdoors as possible. "I only spend as much time on my PCn as I need to finish my story." Aksana is an editor for an outdoor magazine and get inspiration for her stories from the great outdoors. She write about vast themes concerning outdoor life style and stories about adventures and interesting destinations around the world. She also write product descriptions.
Aksana, her husband and four huskies live in a red wooden cottage by a lake surrounded by terrain perfect for the pursuit of all kinds of hobbies. She spends as much as 8 hours a day outside or go for a hike twice a day.
"I express myself by being active. I enjoy the moments where the nature tests me and I need to try just a little bit harder to make it. Just laying around is nothing for me although I sometimes like to take a silent moment for myself. Then I feel the surrounding world much stronger and notice how the snow is sparkling and the wind is howling. By spending time in nature you get in touch with the wisdom and balance that arise from within. For me dreams are meant to be fulfilled and I have lived many of my dreams. There are also moments when you learn to be cautious about what you dream."
