Why I moved to Finland? > The answer is here 🙂


<In Finnish>

Olen opiskellut pääasiassa Japanissa, mutta olin Kanadassa vaihto-opiskelijana yhden vuoden. Valmistumisen jälkeen olin töissä Japanissa yli kolme vuotta. Sitten lopetin työni, ja päätin tulla Suomeen opiskelemaan bisnestä maisteri-opiskelijana, mikä oli paras päätös koskaan. Nyt olen töissä suomalaisessa yrityksessä pääkaupunkiseudulla.

About this blog

Living and traveling abroad has been one of my core identity capitals. Especially, studying and working here in Finland has shaped my sense of value and made me see myself differently, even though I was having wonderful, happy life in Japan. I would really be happy if you become interested in Finland, Japan, their cultures, or traveling itself through this blog and learn something informative for your life!
