-it is COLD THERE!!! Prepare for that!
-it is DARK DARK DARK in Rovaniemi. If you cannot stand it don't go. Although I hate darkness, living with 90 internationals was a great way not to think about it :)
-do not worry if Finnish people don't talk with you in English or Finnish - they are just like that!!!

Everything but the people, who lived there, was actually below my expectations. However we managed to have a fantastic international community, so I was very pleased with housing.
