Greetings from Finland, Northern Europe

Hello all,
I just registered here and thought to say *hi*.
I'll just shortly introduce myself:
I am 27-years old Finnish male, interested in voice acting and related matters. In addition to that, I am interested in reading (I guess that didn't come as a surprise), philosophy, Truth, Wisdom, Nature, computers, games, photography, viewing art, creating art with pc (like image editing and fractals), music (my favorite genres are classical and pop, I guess, I can listen to most types of music, yet I don't like rap, hip hop or over heavy at all) etc.
I am glad to have found this precious place; I stumbled accidentally upon a link and a short article in one Finnish blog and this sounded very interesting. Actually, I *was* looking for this kind of sites before yet didn't find any. I have always been interested in voices and sounds.
I appreciate the fact that the rules here are not too strict when it comes to different dialects etc. of foreign (to those who have English as a mother tongue/first language) people. I am, myself, trying to learn English constantly more and more and better my skills in it. I might be interested in trying to read something in English, but I first have to find a better mic and some kind of audio interface between the mic and my pc. I know, even with this most simple mic I have now, I can produce clear enough recordings so one can hear what I'm saying, yet I want to make them better if it is possible. Only then will I try to publish recordings in a place like this. I use Audacity recording software, too, and am just now finding how to filter off that somewhat annoying "sound garbage" or humm etc., which there is alot because of my simple mic and the connection to the pc.
My sincere thanks to everyone who have made this possible, who support this project and contribute to it.
Kindly,
Jani
