Househeads meets Karlainthemix

In this episode I talk to Karlainthemix, a Finnish DJ and dancer who now lives the US after spending 8 years in Paris. You may have seen Karla on the dancefloor, behind the decks or both because she is super passionate about house music and dance and often attends events around the world. In this episode we found out how she came across house dance in Finland, and later how she became a DJ, as well as how she balances her day job with her artistic life.
