Edna Nelson

Currently living in the Helsinki Metro area, native New Yorker and half-Finn Edna Nelson has been learning Finnish, filling note books, adjusting to the culture and producing her journal-comic series “I <3 Me”.

Packed her bags, flew to Finland and committed to the hope of living her dreams.
