I'm Janos Honkonen, a guy in my mid-30's from the Commie Reindeerland of Finland. I've been making my living in various jobs, including research in computational linguistics, wrestling rainbow trout out of hooks, producing a gaming program for Finnish TV, working in a psychogeriatric ward, sniffing acetone and grading the smell on a scale, being an IT peon and a translator, and doing over a decade of freelance journalism in the areas of technology, gaming, general interest topics, science and adult entertainment. Currently I'm the publicist for a sci-fi film about Nazis from the Dark Side of the Moon.
My interests and hobbies include diving, urban exploration, writing, sci-fi and fantasy, interactive fiction, biology, political activism in the fields of copyrights and gender & sexual minority rights, astronomy, geocaching, knife throwing, photography, playing theremin in Älymystö and Radiokatve, video games, and amassing new hobbies.
In my blog you can find mostly photos of trips to nature, urban ruins, foreign countries and underwater plus random opinions, thoughts and observations about gaming, politics and other subjects.

Hi. My name is Kayla and I am a graduate student studying history at Mississippi State University in the United States. I am currently doing research on Chernobyl and the growth of tourism in the area after the 1986 disaster. I came upon your website and saw that you have visited Chernobyl. I would like to get input from visitors like you to incorporate into my research on why tourism has grown in the area, so I was wondering if you would agree to answer a few of my questions on your experience visiting Chernobyl. Your participation is completely voluntary. By answering my questions, you will be consenting to your inclusion in my research and I will email you back the questions for you to answer when you can. I hope to hear from you and thank you for your time.
Thank you,
Kayla
