The official language is English here, I feel free with English both in study and everyday life. However, Finish is also required by many employers, thus I am trying to learn it.

Finnish Language is very difficult to learn. Although I made a big effort to learn it, i could not manage it. Foreign people needs more than 6 months to learn it. Neverthless it was always easy to communicate with Finnish people who are very friendly and sympathetic
