Who is the girl behind the blog?

Hi, I’m Saana, adventurous traveller and dream hunter from Finland!

Running after dreams has been throwing me from one place to another for years. It has made me leave the things and people I love behind and move abroad  – three times. It has pushed me into troubles, but also into amazing adventures. It has made me consider giving up, but time after time lifted me back on my feet. Why all this effort? Because I have been looking for an answer to the eternal question: what do I want to do with my life?

One dream is following another, but there is always one dream that takes precedence over all the others. My biggest dream has just recently come true. In September 2015, I started my own business, Sandria, and I am now working as a travel and content writer full-time.

Live now – dream later travel blog was born in 2014 when I was pursuing my dreams, this time in Germany, where I was working within PR for trivago for six months. This travel blog is a perfect place for all fellow dreamers, nature lovers and travel enthusiasts to share their hopes, experiences, travel stories and tips from all over the world.

I’m a curious and spontaneous traveller who hates big planning and enjoys nature, even in a city. When I’m not abroad, I’m showing you the best of beautiful Finland. My heart lies in the archipelago of Satakunta and Rauma area on the South-West Coast of Finland.

The main purpose of this travel blog is to encourage other dreamers to give it a shot, to reach their dreams and goals in life instead of being satisfied with dreaming only. You’re never too old to make your dreams come true!
