Travel information

I am currently

Description

Hello, I am Misaki from Nara, Japan, a quiet town with a traditional culture!
I am spending a short working holiday in Finland from the end of October to January! I am highly interested in Finnish & Lappish culture and lifestyle, so I am looking for an opportunity to meet and learn unique cultures, places, and people as much as I can!

I have liked drawing and painting since I was a child, so I like imagining and creating something new! And I am positive and open-minded to learn new things!

My goal in life is to cherish every single encounter. I want to contribute to something in a person's life, even if it is only for a short time. I hope I can make WorkAway encounters great for both of us too!

Nice to meet you!
