Hi! My name is Venla Kataja
and I’m a new volunteer here in Szajol.

I’m from a small village called Simpele. It’s located near Russian boarder in southeast Finland. Simpele is about same size as Szajol so I’m used to live in a small place. I’m 18 years old and graduated from high-school this spring. I don’t know what I want to study or be in the future. Maybe this experience clarifies my thoughts. My family consist of my mother, father, brother and sisters and, last but not least, three cats. My brother is 28, older sister is 29 and younger is 14. We also have some chickens.
