My name is Anna, and on the 29th of June, I turned 24 years old. I am from Poland. I am studying the Master's Programme in Health Informatics at Karolinska Institutet. As a digital ambassador and blogger I will try to show you Swedish everyday life.

One of the most important things that motivates me is learning new things. I am a nurse and I have been working in an Operation Theatre and Pediatric Ward as of this year. I have wanted to combine my medical knowledge and my passion for programming, so I was looking for studies with this opportunity. I learned about Health Informatics at Karolinska Institutet two years ago, but only this year did I decide to apply - I know it's my time.

I have always been interested in Scandinavian culture; fika time is one of my favourites (If you don't know what fika is – you need to keep up with my blog)! I want to meet people with similar interests and to travel with them, especially to Kiruna. I like to cook, bake, and play basketball or chess in my free time. My hobbies are taking photos and editing videos. I'm also a Stephen King enthusiast. A fun fact about me is that I don't have space for more books in my room!
