A Day In The Life of A Finn in College

What language(s) do you speak? How do you say "Hello" in your language?:

I obviously speak Finnish and English. In Finland you are required to take courses in English starting at age seven and then Swedish later on in your schooling.

You generally use "Hei Hei" to say hello to your friends.

Do you have pets?:

I do not have any pets in my apartment. It is allowed, but it is a process.

Have you traveled? Where have you traveled to?:

I have traveled all over Europe. It is very easy and cheap to travel to most places, especially in eastern Europe. I went to Norway with friends last April and frequently go to Tallinn in Estonia because of the easy boat ride from Helsinki.

What do you do for work?:

I am currently a full time masters student at LUT (Lappeenranta University of Technology).

Is there anything else you would like to say to students in the United States?:

I would say follow what you are passionate in. Also, the world needs more problem solvers to find solutions in sustainable issues!
