Hello. You can call me Glyde.

I'm living in Joensuu, Finland for my master's degree. Hoping to get tips on how to live in Finland and also people who can help me learn Suomi (Finnish)!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I try to save money so I can travel at least once a year. Hey, that's an amazing thing, right?

Teach, Learn, Share

Aside from common accommodations, I can share company with my Couchsurfer. This may be oversimplifying things, but I am flexible and I'm open to anything. :P
