Far Away but still so near

Greetings from New York My Internship at Finland’s UN Mission Greetings from New York! I am spending my training exchange at the Permanent Mission of Finland to the United Nations. My time here combines practical work in an international environment with the opportunity to explore a city very different from my hometown, Rovaniemi.

First Spring of 2026 in Lyon, France

Spring has always fascinated me as a season of new beginnings, especially with flowers blooming and nature coming back to life. Yet, experiencing spring in Lyon felt particularly beautiful to me. The combination of the warmer weather, blooming flowers, and the city’s architecture made the season feel even more special.

My Summer Internship in Tallinn

This summer, I had the opportunity to complete my practical training in Tallinn, Estonia. Estonia is not a new country to me, as I was born there and have visited Tallinn many times. However, spending the whole summer there for my internship gave me a different perspective, especially on working life.

Greetings from Barcelona

I spent the spring semester of 2026 on an exchange in Barcelona, and I am grateful that I decided to make it part of my studies at TAMK, where I study Entrepreneurship and Team Leadership. Living abroad, studying in a different environment in English, meeting countless new people, having new experiences, enjoying my youth, opening my eyes to the international world, and learning about myself on a whole different level taught me so much. It will always be a heartwarming experience that I will carry with me. I can recommend going on an exchange.

Working Summer in Croatia

During the summer of 2026, I did three months of practical training in Split, Croatia. I choose to use an opportunity and do an internship in my home country as it would enable me to see family and friends as well as to progress in my studies. I am grateful for this summer and the training I had as it was fun, dynamic, educational and most importantly, it gave me a sense of direction for the future.
