Nordic Society: Communications Manager

Hej alle! I'm Amelie, I'm currently in 2nd year of EISPS specialising in Geography. I am half Danish and would love to become more involved in the Nordic society this year. I have been in an interim position as a communication manager since September and have really enjoyed designing the posts for the society's Instagram and attending the weekly committee meetings. 

I would like the Nordic society to become a "home away from home" for Nordic students who feel they need to reconnect with their roots, or simply students who are interested in learning more about the Nordic spirit :)  As the communication manager I will be able to make sure that everyone is up to date with our upcoming events. 

I look forward to meeting you all! 

I hope that you consider me for the position of communication manager. 

Moi everyone!

My name is Salli and I am currently doing my Masters in Hispanic studies here at UCL. Although born and bred in rural Finland, I have travelled the world quite a bit since and one of the greatest ways to alleviate homesickness and uphold my Nordic identity in different places has been through meeting other Nordic or Nordic-minded students and spreading our wonderful cultural heritage. I have plenty of experience organising societies during my undergraduate and communications-related things are nothing new to me. Nothing quite tickles my brain like a nice newsletter or a well-curated group chat. I am also organised and highly motivated and hence I'd love to join the amazing Nordic Society's team! 

Finally, I am always happy to engage in (well-meaning) debates about the true origin of korvapuusti/kanelbulle or do a mini-lesson about Finnish baseball (the most graceful of all Scandi sports, amirite?). See you at the next event!
