I was born in 1944 and I am living now in Helsinki, the capital of Finland. I have collected Asterix albums for more than 30 years and now I have propably the largest collection of translations, special editions and publishers of the world. Tintin albums I have collected only 10 years and still trying to catch them all.
I have visited during my life all the 193 UN countries, 3 other countries, 4 former independent UN countries and 8/8 so called non-sovereign countries. Additional to these I have visited about 60 autonomous regions or overseas islands, but not counting any federal states or regions.
