Puzzle with Emilia
I loved puzzles in my childhood...
...but then I forgot they even existed for 15 years... I started assembling puzzles again during the late spring of 2022. In 2022 I did a handful of puzzles there and there. In 2023 things got crazy as I started my puzzle account @puzzlewithemilia and started learning so much more from the puzzle community.
When I heard about speed puzzling, I was all in immediately. In no time, someone told me that you can also compete in speed puzzling. From my very first competition, I have taken the speed puzzling world by storm. In the World Jigsaw Puzzle Championship 2023, after a few month of practising, I was ranked 82. in Individual competition and 21. in Pairs competition. Currently, me and my pair are the two fastest speed puzzlers in Finland. I aim to be the fastest in Finland and in TOP10 of the World in 2025.
Extra-detailed and colorful puzzles are my absolute favorites. I like to do puzzles of all sizes. Unfortunately, my kitchen (aka puzzle) table can only hold 2000 pieces at one time. I also have very helpful Havanese dog called Vili who is making sure I cannot do puzzles alone on the floor.
