1. Who are you?
Maj-Lis: "I am a 43-year-old very enterprising and active woman from Rovaniemi. I have been singing my whole life, ever since I could produce a sound. And boy, have I produced a lot!"
2. What are you like as a woman?
Maj-Lis: "I am social, which helps me both in my work as a real estate agent and as a performer. On the flip side, I also need a lot of time to unwind, and that works best in our backyard sauna—three hours can easily slip by. But it’s never completely quiet there either; sauna songs—my playlist includes several tangos—and the music plays until the embers fade. Before, we didn’t have handy devices to take into the sauna, so we sang ourselves. Once in a thousand times, *Rannalla tango* and other classics echoed off the sauna benches. So, I take tango just as seriously and passionately as I do sauna bathing.
3. What are your hobbies?
Maj-Lis: "My hobby is life itself. I enjoy my work, and if I could do even more gigs, I’d be over the moon."
