Sociable introvert with a restless mind. Starting my master's of architecture in September. Always looking for things to do where the outcome is uncertain. My interest in people goes beyond their occupation/profession. I appreciate sarcasm and dry humor. I also enjoy making sculptural furniture.

I will be coming from Germany, where I spent 2 weeks in Weimar and Berlin for a summer program. Now, I will be spending two weeks in Finland. My interest in the country began three years ago when I visited a friend in Helsinki. The experience left an indelible mark on my life.
