University organizes "tutors group" who are taking in charge incoming students. They are used to foreigners and you can learn a lot from them.

The weather is tough and the people seem cold: they are not, just a bit shy.But if you get in touch with them they are great.

everything was ok. Maybe the only thing I wish I have done (instead I didn't) could be going out more often (i was too tired at the end of the day...). weather was really cold but everybody survived.

As this wasn´t an exchange year for me as a finn, I´m not the right person to tell you about the life as an exchange student... But I got to know a lot of people from abroad at the university and they were all very happy!:) The finns are very helpful and relaxed people, but they not the ones for small talk.
