Hello! I am Kotomi.
I am Japanese and 22 years old.
I am currently planning to travel in Finland on leave from my postgraduate studies in Japan.
I would like to get away from Japan for a while, meet various people and think about what kind of life and place suits me best.
📝Background
I studied engineering (5 years) and did research in robotics and psychology (2 years).
At the same time, in my holidays,
I worked for several months in sushi restaurants, wedding halls, etc., and for three years in sales and marketing of cute pet robots.
I have an interest in foreign countries and have spent several weeks each in the USA, Australia and Finland. I fell in love with Finland's rich nature and quiet atmosphere and wanted to live there for a long time.
⭐️Personality
I am a bit shy. However, I like talking to people, I want to be exposed to different cultures and ideas, and I enjoy both deep and stupid conversations.
