BUILDING BELONGING · A PUBLIC EXPERIMENT · JUN 1 – JUL 1, 2026
Will I stay
in Finland?
For June 2026, I ran a public experiment to better understand whether Finland can support the kind of life I want to build — socially and professionally. Along the way, I've documented what I've learned about belonging, friendship, community, work, reciprocity, and the conditions that make a place feel like home.
