Dagni's Bio

I think my last name speak for itself. I'm 30 years old from Finland (Jyväskylä, Keski-Suomi). . I'm in motosport my whole life so i think i have to say something about it. But all depends who listens.
I studied in Uppsala och Stockholm in Sweden and finished Sibelius academy in Finland. I have done many things in my life, mostly including music, Rally and Formula 1 at this moment (but not for long because at the end of next year i will dedicate myself on racing academy). I drove some Rallies as well on various occasions. Also i travel on every Formula 1 race, when i come back home it looks like holiday for me. Beside Finland, (Jyväskylä, Laukaa, Helsinki), i also live in Sweden (Stockholm) and Monte Carlo. And i spend some of free time in Alta in northern Norway (the Love of My Life is from there).
Finnish and Swedish are my main languages, but i speak all Scandiavian languages (and some other languages too) so i'm sorry for plenty mistakes that i make when i write on english.

    gibson do make a blue guitar, i think its a les paul custom. the colour is called midnight manhatten, i think they do a ice blue for the Goddess.
    Im self taught on the guitar. i got into it too late in life (i was 20 when i started!).
    at the moment, im looking for people to start jamming with, but not having much luck at the moment.

    Racing academy huh?

    I was wondering, if I should drop by in Finland, you have to give me a tour of the academy! I just want to see the interesting thing that I could've been doing instead of wasting four years in uni :)

    Pretty cool! I hope that you and your partner can visit me in Korea while you're in between races! I just might want to visit Suzuka and Shanghai, and I do have some friends in Singapore too!

    Well, Korea does offer the best pay, and they've offered me a signing bonus and money just to think about it. I feel like Kimi when he was deciding on whether or not he should go to Ferrari :)

    If you come to Korea, I could show you the North Korean border. That's always a great place to go! You could also hang around for a day or two before making your journey to Shanghai from Japan, or vice versa.

    It's kind of sad to say, but I've never had any formal flight training. I'm saving up my earnings from tutoring and from the job that could be in Korea to get a pilot's license. I have experienced negative G's before, and I'll be the first to admit that it's definitely not a pleasant feeling. I think it's worse than when going down a rollercoaster from the peak.

    I'm currently in student heaven right now, which means that I have to work hard, drink a lot and sleep in!

    Whereabouts in Central Finland are you? I know that the country isn't just Helsinki...

    Tentatively, it's Korea. No guarantees that it'll be there, but that's a possibility at the moment...

    Don't worry, I don't really talk about these things either, it's a private matter!

    Also, I might be living in East Asia next year, so I might be around for the grand prix in Japan, Shanghai, Malaysia and Singapore, depending on how much time off I get with my new job...

    Hey, forgot to thank you for the PotD.

    I'll be looking for more of your input into such fascinating topics like Max Mosley's BDSM and Ron Dennis having honour :)

    I dropped an edit on your Massa piece. I think that I preserved and protected your intent. If not, revert it.
