Hi fellow steemers! I am writing this post to introduce myself to all of you. This is only my second post on steemit so I am still trying to figure out how it works. I also try to find likeminded people, so please do comment if you share a interest with me!
Who am I?
My name is Mia, I am 23 years old and I study psychology in Turku, Finland. I also work part time as a youth activities counselor on a cruise ship traveling between Turku and Stockholm. My main interests are psychology, theatre, drawing, photography, traveling, nature, snowboarding, going to the gym and I am also trying to learn yoga.
On the 17th of August I will move to Long Beach, California for a year to study acting. This is something I have been dreaming about doing for many years now. I am extremely excited and also quite nervous and I will definitely be posting more about my exchange in the months to come.
What will I post about?
I will mainly be posting about two things:
1. I will post about my life. In the near future I will write posts about my exchange and about living and traveling in California. I will also be posting pictures of nature and places that I visit in Finland, the US and other countries.
2. I will post about topics concerning mental health and other aspects of psychology. My dream is to work with something where I can combine my interest for psychology and arts. One way I would like to do this is by creating art and organizing art projects that address mental health issues. Contributing to raising awareness and fighting stigmatization of mental disorders is of great importance to me.
If this is something that is important to you, or that you try to do as well, please do comment! I would love to share thoughts and ideas, or work on a project together with other people that try to raise awareness about mental health issues as well.
I might also do some posts about other things that are important to me, like promoting healthy and sustainable living, vegan food, charity and volunteering.
Thank you so much for reading and please do upvote, comment or follow if you feel like you might be interested in what I have to share! :)
Good luck at long beach! Do you know people there or are you just up and leaving?

Thank you! I don't know anyone there, and I don't even know where I'm going to live yet :D I love these kinds of adventures where I can just leave to a totally new place and live a totally different life for a while. I've done it twice before, but it seems to become more scary as I grow older.. :P

Get a place as close to the beach you can afford. Those areas are the safest. Welcome to Steemit!

Psychology huh? I also studied that as a second career, never finished because I was working 14 hours a day before dropping everything and starting traveling.
Volunteering huh? You are going to love some of my posts from about 2 months ago, I did some farming, fence building for an animal shelter, bought dog food for an dog shelter... not bragging, just stating we think similarly.
Vegan food huh? So sad, we where going so great with our similitudes...
Great intro post, started following Mia.

Wow, working 14 hours a day... That sounds rough! I bet it felt good to quit working and go travel. Do you think you're gonna pick up your psychology studies again some time or do you hope to be able to just keep traveling?
I will have to check out those volunteering posts, sounds really nice! I always wanted to volunteer with animals :)
And for the veganism part: 😁 oh well, we can't have everything!

Thank you! I look so much forward to being there! :) I actually haven't been acting that much, only in some summer plays and when younger. So it's both really exciting and a bit scary to study acting full time now, especially since english isn't my first language. But I'll mostly take fundamental courses so I think it will be alright :). Maybe you have some tips on what I should do when visiting L.A.? Or other nice places to visit in California? :)

Hi Mia! I also just signed up, need to post my intro soon. I had to comment because while I ended up moving into graphic design, I studied Creative Art Therapy when I was in college- I love your passion and my husband's family is originally from there- neighboring Seal Beach is so cute to go walk around by- the Main street that leads to the boardwalk has tons of cute shops and restaurants and is a nice initial SoCal experience.

Hi! That's really cool, I think there is lots of potential in creative art therapies. I'm especially interested in different forms of drama therapy but I think all forms of creative art work can be helpful when treating e.g. anxieties and depression. Thank you for the tips, I will check out Seal Beach. Looking forward to reading your introduction :) I followed you

Also, I think it's great that you are an advocate for therapy in regards to mental health. I always say that mental health is attributed to a certain type of spiritual well being. Once we combine therapy of the physical mental along with the healing of the spirit, I believe we will have then transformed the way mental health is to be treated.
