Hi! I grew up believing that I would be a graphic designer, drawing all the time, playing with colors, making sketches; my parents are travellers since I remember. They decided to go on a family trip to New York city, and the moment we arrive I fall in love with the architecture and the city. Since that moment I wanted to do that, I wanted to participate, to build something. I studied Architecture, but I didn't want to stop there, I wondering so much in how cities work, or known about urban life, or the interplay between transportation, services, the economy and land use regulations, so I took a few courses of Urbanism. And now I have the opportunity to participate as an intern in one of the best studios in Helsinki, Finland. The problem is they accept interns but they don't pay them, and I am really interest in work with them, and learn. I want to go back to my country and apply everything I learned there. So this is my opportunity to work in an architecture/urbanism studio :)

So I want to stay there for at least a year, I don't have enough money to survive my my own, so I really need help. :) :)
