Paying it Forward!

ABOUT ME

I have been given an insane amount of help when it comes to visiting, living, and surviving abroad. I would like to return the favor to people experiencing Helsinki for the first (or second, or third) time, in the hopes that they can come to love it as much as I do.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I met a guy in a bar in Helsinki because we physically ran into each other twice and he heard me speak English (he was dating an American). We high-fived, talked for maybe 30 minutes, and exchanged numbers. A month later, I called him to see if he wanted to get a drink, and he invited me to spend several days with his family at their summer home on an island. I went. It was the most incredible experience, and before he included me in it, we'd known each other for less than an hour. Amazing people.
