TANGO ARGENTINO + MEETING MY OLD BUDDY JANNE

← Blog

If you hear Finland you think reindeers, thousand lakes and mobile phone companies. Rarely you would connect Finland with Argentine Tango. But – believe it or not – Finland is THE country for dancing the Tango, second to Argentina of course. To learn and improve my Tango skills I took a little holiday and flew over to Finland for a Tango workshop and a concert of the famous "Quinteto Angel" Tango-Orchestra. It was great. Somehow different to the usual sports I do, yet very interesting, as it is a very complex dance – and so nice! 
In Helsinki I met Janne Kaitala, my former Finnish team-mate in the Burton Team. It was great to see him after so many years. It’s crazy how time flies. But Janne is still the same, I can’t wait to get back to Finland again!
