Henri Mattila Email & Phone Number

After over 20 years of working around the world, I decided to have a break to full-fill my life long dream to visit every country in the world. It became a real challenge and much more complex than I ever could imagine. Finally, in March 2020 when I arrived to Afghanistan, I had it completed, just before Corona closed the world a week later. After denied visas, cancelled flights and lot of exciting moments it felt amazing to achieve something, which only few hundred people in the whole world have completed. It also turned a true learning experience which trained me to become a true problem solver, amazing negotiator and tough me that impossible is possible when you have a will.
