I was born in June at 1969 (everybody can then count my age if want to) in a little village of southern ostrobotnia (THIS is a very important information and explains a lot...) in finland. Cannot tell very much about my childhood exept it was extremely happy. I had safe home in private entrepreneur family (quarrying business -> lot of explosives around to play with...) and enough friends to fight with in neighbour. There were a hunters and fishers (it was not purely as a hobby but also important source of food on that time) in ancestry of both of my parents and I was 4 year old when first time shooted on a "powder gun". Of course this relation adapted also my hobbies so I did spent a most of my time fishing in river nearby. When I was old enough (the age limit on those days were lower than today) I got my first "real" gun (shotgun with 3 barrel pairs, still got those all...) On a year 1983 I went to martial art exercises (Judo) and nowdays I cross-training (exept lately I have been a quite inactive because of my family etc.) So the major hobbies for me: Shooting, hunting, fishing, (nature)* and martial arts. I am fussing with lot of other things also but it would be too long list and I would certainly forget something if I would try to put those all on record... Nowdays I have a regular job in IT area but that is only work and I am not gonna bore anybody by telling a more about that. Update will come someday If there is something important to put in this section... * in brakkets for it is not a HOBBY but a lifestyle and almost everything else in my life are debendent on that E-Mail: Marko Vesapuisto ] [
