Downpart of Living Abroad No One Will Tell You About

 

Another cooperation with My Salmiakki Life... my blogpost on expatriot life. :)

I am alive!

I have been gone, and I am back. :) So much has happened since my last post. I studied, I started new business...and i absolutely love my new career. :) A friend of mine made a two part interview with me about, my story of living in Finland and searching for a job. 

You can read my story at My Salmiakki Life, in two parts: 

• Part 1: I had to forget who I was and what I did in the Czech republic  
• Part 2: It may be strange, but in my head I reduce people to muscles

Life has been treating me pretty well. After a year of intense studies at Stadin AO in Helsinki, where I picked a classical massage, I opened a business again and I joined a team of great professionals at Kehokulma in Tuusula, where I live. 

A month ago I also started to work one day per week at the massage center in Kerava - Hyvää Hieronta Sinulle. 

So feel free to book a time. Or drop a comment down here. :) Tell me how your life has been.
