She's 31, half Finnish, half Asian, scientist, lives nearby, tall...this is perfect. If I had to describe my perfect girlfriend, that would be it.

I didn't even know that she was Finnish, nor did she know that I am. That came out in discussions. And she wrote LOADS. Even from the start. On Bumble, most women will say "hi" but she actually put effort in. And then she would write like a phone's screen-length of text for everything I said. Asking questions. Showing an interest.

She's been in the UK for about as long as I've been here. She lived in various countries in Europe and Asia. She goes back to Finland once a year because I think she largely grew up there.

It's crazy. I'll blow it big time but it will still be cool to meet a fellow half-Finnish person. I got her phone number. This should be happening.
