Speaks

I use English almost as well as my mother tongue (Finnish) and I've studied Swedish at school and I can understand it okay, but I've rarely used it.

Preferred location

I'm looking for new experiences, not just looking at new places but experiencing them and doing good in the world. In the future I would love to travel all over the world, but for now I have too many plans to have time to go far.

Skills

I have volunteered on an eco farm for half a year before and while there I learned a bit about farming, building and taking care of farm animals. I find such work suits me well and I would love to learn more on these topics.
By training I am a baker and I'm also adept at cooking. I've specialized in vegan baking due to my own diet and also gluten free and other diets.
I have worked as a school assistant for special needs teenagers for half a year and I have done other work with children and teens.
I could do tutoring in English but that is the only useful language I am good at. If you wish to learn Finnish I would love to teach it too!
I study game design and so far mostly it has improved my drawing and writing skills and I also know a little 3d modelling.

Additional info

I am not a smoker, don't have a drivers license, I am a vegetarian and I have allergies.

I have had problems with toxic mold, so now I can't breathe when I'm around any kind of mold. Some things put it lab made fragrances and cigarette smoke make me feel sick and faint.
