Description
Hi,
I'm Emma, a 25-year-old from Finland. I work as a theatre and choir producer and a photographer.
I live in Helsinki, where I spend my free time playing football, spending time with my friends, reading books in the park and swimming in the summer. This spring and summer I'm excited to start planting in my garden.
Other things I enjoy is cooking vegetarian dishes, being with animals, learning languages, doing yoga and doing short hikes. I enjoy spending time at my family's summer cottage. I'm passionate about climate justice and human rights, with queer and BIPOC rights being closest to my heart.
In 2019, I interrailed in Europe for two months and did three absolutely wonderful workaways in France and one on Mallorca. In the spring of 2024, I did a short, week long workaway in a small town located under Madrid.
In the summer of 2026 I have a month off from work, and I'm dreaming about doing a workaway in the country side

She helped us a lot at home, especially for cooking: thanks for the cinnamon buns that will keep your memory at home.
Barely gone, Jonas asked when Emma would come back.
He is a person of great qualities that we would have liked to have longer with us;))
