About me

If you are here, you are wondering what and who is behind this page. So I will try to give some answers.

I created Pine Canvas to follow my journey toward changing my life and hopefully inspire myself and others when things get rough. Maybe someone can find comfort in knowing there is someone else struggling or find a motivation to pursue their own dreams.

This journey has had ups and downs – to the point blog was off for a while, returned to shut again – and this time lost everything. Thanks to Vanessa I got magic portal which helped me to recover most off it – at least the parts I chose.

The name – my last name translated to English is Pine. Canvas refers to a blank canvas that may become anything – just a blog. Dream. Gallery for my snaps. Future e-shop. My future job?

I hope you stick around and we will find out together what is in the cards for Pine Canvas.


Only you can change your life. Dare yourself!


Who am I?

I have a multifaced day job and I went back to school – so some posts are about my school journey – over a decade later and with a full-time job I went back to school. I work in a small staff whole-sales company and due to the small staff, my assignments vary from training co-workers to accounting and IT development projects management. So I chose my major in business administration and management based on my work experience and future possibilities. Most of the topics covered all my self-learned skills so this sounded like a great way to back them up with independent sources that could count more than just my words. This means better options for finding a new job or getting extra skills to go on my own. I hope. I dream.

So I have mastered several skills and over time I plan to share my tips and experiences with event management, project (including IT) developments, implementation, marketing, and workout adventures – past and future ones. I also have been called Excel master among many things. I will share them over time here.

Hunting dreams

I got a bundle of dreams. Some say I want too much. But then again – isn’t a probability to get more if I want more? Sometimes they shine bright like a sun. Sometimes like an almost burned-out candle in a dark cave. So keeping them here could help me to remember them in those darker moments when everything seems to be failing.

I will use this blog to track my way to my dreams, so follow me to find out. And I will not make a secret of the fact that creating extra income and maybe one day even allow me enough financial independence to work only on the terms I want and on the things I want and enjoy. So there will be affiliate links, ads, or one day even sponsored posts to get me there. I will also use my designing skills to create planners, notebooks, and maybe more. Some of them will be available for free in exchange for a newsletter subscription.
