Jari "Ikkis" Ikävalko earns his daily bread by writing news to small local newspaper called Uusimaa (front page).
He lives in a 651 years old little town Porvoo (Porvoo-site) in southern coast of Finland. There Ikkis has managed to create 2 lovely children, wich are his most important people in the whole world (boys are fishing, black and white pictures Juho (52k) and Jalmari (52k)).
This person was born in Tampere July fift in 1956. Ikkis hasn't been married, but he has separated from his ex-vacant and lives now alone. He hasn't got lots of official education, but has studied voluntarily many different things.
Some of his favorite writers are linked to sub-page, and there is reserved one page for few wise men, which have left their fingerprints to this page-owners brains. And you can also find exampels of his musical taste.
Ikkis has made a link-page too; there you can find some links to interesting (that's Ikkikses own opinion) places. Unfortunaly many of links are in finnish servers and pages, not all.
If you are interested of Ikkis's outside form, you can click his drawed head in main page: there is about 70 Kbs black and white gif from Ikkis.
Ikkis likes music, litterature, tobacco (no more :)), women, nature, coffee, fishing, movies, eating, animals, thinking and sleeping. Ikkis doesn't like "important" people, religion, poverty, fine clothes and cars, christmas, soap-operas, muzak and small talk.
Ikkis is pagan (buddhist), leftist, sober and forever young :).
