Personal recommendation
University doesn't need recommendations. It's already well known and appreciated in the country. In fact it's modern, innovative, open-minded, and offers plenty of possibilities (courses, activities)

It was an awesome experience, maybe the best of my life. I learned many academic issues. But the more important thing I learned was to be more independent.

Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
It gives the possibility to get acquainted with most of the exchange students. Good social life and good price.

Personal comments
The university provides you some apartments or rooms with cheap price. Tutors pick you up at the airport and bring you directly to your room. It's a good service provided from the university.

Personal social experience
Personal comments
There are some good places in Turku which are important to be known, like "The Old School", that is a beautiful cafe-bar now, but it was a real school many years ago. But, the most interesting thing of Finland is the wide possibilities that an exchange student can have to travel to other countries because there are many discounts and facilities to do it.
