My name is Oskar Palomäki, I'm a 27-year-old student from Åbo Akademi University, Finland. My major subject is process engineering which includes process design, refrigeration, and heat engineering.
When I first got the information of these course, I became excited, because I like working and studying in an international environment. Of course, Åbo Akademi is a very international university and I have teachers and study mates from different parts of the world, but this is a unique chance to get familiar with new people and really improve the own language skills. Also, sustainable solutions and development are important to me.
Three things I love about Finland: 1. The diverse seasons (I love skiing in the winter and biking and running in the summertime), 2. Equity and equal treatment for everyone is a good foundation to have and 3. The very advanced and great healthcare that keep us running!
Fun fact of myself: I love Mämmi, which is a dessert in Finland that some of us eat during the Easter season.
A little disclaimer: Mämmi and its taste divides people’s opinion, but I like it anyway!
I’m looking forward to meeting you all!
