Hämeen Ammattikorkeakoulu

The place where I was living was a quiet small city; pubs do not have anything special. So I did not really enjoy the nightlife, unless when I was going to biggest towns, and still... But anyway it was nice to compare the nightlife in Finland to the London one for instance. On the other hand, I had many activities to do. My university proposed many sports activities with the students, everytime I had nothing to do, I was going to relax my self in the sporting complex.

Everything we needed was provided for our every day life in the flat. I can not really complain about it. As I said the only problem was to live with seven other girls. But at the end, I think that it has been a pretty good experience, I mean that I had to learn how to live with people from different culture with different habits.

The Finnish language is very difficult to learn. However I have tried to learn it but I did not end with good results and mainly because I did not spend enough time in the country. Fortunately the majority of people speak English in Finland, that is the reason why I did not have any problems in my everyday life.

Before leaving the home country, it is important to be sure that all the papers are organised and signed and mainly about the financial help. Today I am back home and I still did not receive anything from my home university, and it has been quiet difficult to deal with this kind of problems when I was abroad. When the student is abroad, he must avoid staying with other students from the same country in order to be more open to the new life that he is living.
