Additional Information

"Everyday I wake up I still can not believe that I am in Helsinki, Finland. I have been given such a great gift to be able to continue my ceramic work and learn about this great culture. Not only have I learned so much about Finland, but also have the chance to see a lot of the surrounding countries. I feel I am building a friendship with a country that will last forever."

Upon her return, Heather plans to find a job in higher education and continue her own ceramic work.
