Hello, I’m Andrew Hale.

This is my blog. I use it as a staging area to publish articles on living and working in Finland, as well as my two big passions; General Aviation and Adventure Motorcycle riding.

As I live in the Nordics most of the articles are about this region. I hope that you will find the information useful.

I am originally from Sydney Australia and and have lived in Espoo Finland for the last 12 years. I have traveled the Nordic region extensively for both business and pleasure.

I have a degree in International Business and have worked in IT Contracting mostly for Nokia and Microsoft.

I am an entrepreneur and have two successful businesses. Infusion Oy which focuses on IT Consulting and Muddy Tracks Media which is focused on publishing and media production.

I have an EASA Private pilots license PPL(A) issued by Trafi in Finland which I obtained in 2015. I currently have a little under 100 hours flying experience. Fortunately I am a little more experienced with motorcycling riding, having some 20 years experience under the belt.

As to my personal life I have two amazing kids (pictured above), a wonderful wife Tania and an energetic dog called Jimmy. We enjoy undertaking interesting projects together and traveling.

If you want to get in contact please email me on andrewhale60 at hotmail.com. For those living in Finland you can also easily find my phone number on Fonecta. I won’t list it here to avoid all the spam callers.
