Hello, all! As the title says, I’ll be moving to Finland in a week. I’m an African coming for a bachelor’s degree at TUNI. While I’ve had a lot of advice from TUNI student tutors and articles from different sites, any not-so-known or underrated one you have will be very much appreciated.

Thank you!

    Finnish culture on average is quiet and reserved. Don’t take it as negative attitude towards you.

    We are not big on customs and procedure. We are not going to be insulted if you don’t act in certain way.

    Most here speak English or atleast understand it.

    Communication networks here are extensive and cheap. No need to hunt for free wifi.
