Yours truly
Yours truly is a 25-year-old psychology student from Finland. This blog is all about the life and struggles of a master's degree student working on a quite the peculiar research project about tattoos on psychologists. I stand for honesty and humor more than academic formality, so you won't find much scientific jargon here.
You can read all about my project on the ‘Research’ page, and get to know more about me on the ‘About’ page. If you wish to root for me and tell me I rock and stuff, leave me a comment and say hi. If you have questions, bring them on, and if you simply want to follow my process, feel free by all means.
