Positive, vibrant, elegant and always smiling…\u00a0 <\/span>we played a round with Ekaterina at Los Naranjos Golf Club\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

to get to know her fascinating story.<\/p>\n

What was the reason to come to live in Marbella?<\/b><\/p>\n

Work initially and now Golf as well!<\/p>\n

The past couple of years playing golf and meeting so many new people have changed my life. Of course I miss Finland at times, especially the snow in winter and ice swimming… but I am very happy here!<\/p>\n

And when\u00a0 <\/span>did you start to play golf?<\/b><\/p>\n

Shortly after I moved here in 2021 a friend I used to play tennis with, many years ago, called me. Following the long and depressive Covid period, she wanted to take up a physical activity to get back in shape and be in a better state of mind. I suggested golf and that’s how it all started.<\/p>\n

Is your friend still playing golf?\"\"<\/b><\/p>\n

Yes, of course. Golf has changed her life as well.<\/p>\n

What is the best thing about the game?<\/b><\/p>\n

The people! I am a member of Los Arqueros Golf and Country Club and I love it there!\u00a0 <\/span>I frequently play with people from completely different countries and backgrounds.\u00a0 <\/span>Our golf games are never the same, some are great and others are frustrating, but we’re out there as a group, encouraging and motivating each other. And afterwards, well, it’s fantastic to socialize together.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>And what is the worst part of the game?\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Hmm…for me…I hate three putting \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n

What is your goal in golf?\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

I’m actually very pleased because in two years my handicap has gone down to 25, but I’d love to lower it more.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>I get a lot of inspiration from playing with lower handicap golfers… they make it look so easy.<\/p>\n

The amazing thing is… we can all play together because of the handicap system.<\/p>\n

I may be just a beginner but I get so much out of the game. It’s never too late to start!<\/p>\n

Who is your favorite professional golfer?\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

I admire Tiger Woods’ approach to the game.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>So, golf has helped you in your life?\"\"<\/b><\/p>\n

Absolutely, apart from meeting new people,\u00a0 <\/span>I have learned etiquette, discipline, patience, respect and an understanding of other players.<\/p>\n

And it has opened doors for my work!<\/p>\n

In Helsinki, I was teaching at a Business Academy, some of the subjects included: setting up of a business, taxation and marketing.\u00a0 <\/span>Apart from my family and friends,\u00a0 <\/span>two of the most important things\u00a0 <\/span>in my life are …..my company and golf.\u00a0 <\/span>Sometimes they complement each other as I often meet new clients out on the course.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What are the services you offer in your company?\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

We offer full home services. Most of my clients are from Finland,\u00a0 <\/span>Sweden, Denmark and Norway, to name a few. They have residences in this region but do not live here permanently. It is very important and very convenient for them to have someone they trust based here in Marbella!<\/p>\n

We prepare clients \u2018 residences for their arrival so they can just relax and enjoy their time whilst here. We can also book activities for them…\u00a0 <\/span>golf games off course,\u00a0 <\/span>wine tasting,\u00a0 <\/span>boat trips, shooting, horse riding, spa days and any other arrangements they may require.<\/p>\n

In fact,\u00a0 <\/span>we offer comprehensive services which could include doing the shopping and filling up a fridge before the client\u2019s arrival, organizing car transfers from abroad to Marbella and back, preparing pools and\u00a0 <\/span>gardens, ensuring that their\u00a0 <\/span>children are looked after by organizing babysitters (we cater for five languages) and so much more… \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I would like to add that apart from the above services, we can organize for their properties to be rented\u00a0 <\/span>when they are not here, if they so wish. And if repair works, renovations or an alarm system are needed we can assist with that as well.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>Could you tell us why anyone should come and contract you? What is the difference between your business and any other similar?\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

All I would like to say is that at Scandic\u00a0 <\/span>Pro Services<\/a> <\/strong>I am proud to bring positive energy, careful planning and ultimate satisfaction to my clients. They can trust us to deliver.. down to the smallest of detail.<\/p>\n

It’s a bit like golf… Integrity is everything!<\/p>\n\n\t\t
