Markus Aurala

You have just landed on the homepage of Markus Aurala.

Without further ado, a few facts about me:

I am a mobile enthusiast. You hardly ever see me without my phones. I have one in every pocket and I keep test driving new applications and services all the time, sometimes even developing something small by myself. My special interest lies in mobile gambling and I have recently started to blog about it. Read more here.

I enjoy reading books. I rediscovered my love for books when I moved from Espoo to Siuntio in January 2007 and since then have spent approx 1.5 hours on a train per day. Being a “jack of many trades, master of none”, I try not to limit myself to any single topic. You can find some book recommendations on these pages.

I love travelling. I have travelled a lot around the world, for business and pleasure. My all-time favourite destinations are China, Thailand, London, Amsterdam, California and Las Vegas. Las Vegas has always a special place in my heart as I was married there (by Elvis, of course) in June 2004. My next big plan in this area is to take a train from Helsinki to Shanghai. Since this requires a lot of research and I have already been involved in many discussions regarding this project, I’ll open a specific section on these pages for sharing information.

I take a lot of photographs. I have taken thousands and thousands of digital photographs. I hardly ever leave the home without a camera.
