I am back for the longest time! And I will tell you about my favourite mobility program for young Europeans: volunteering through European Solidarity Crops! The Solidarity Corps has many kinds of cool international possibilities but in this post, I am concentrating on the cross-country volunteering program. The program aims to encourage solidarity through a range of volunteering and humanitarian projects across the European Union and even beyond.

During my studies, I have worked as a tutor for international students coming to our university. Most of the things mentioned in this post are stuff that I actually told my tuties during their first weeks here. So you could consider me as your virtual tutor who guides you through the subject! I am aiming to write this guide as general as possible so it fits exchange students coming to study at any university in Finland and not just to

An internship abroad?  Sounds like a cool idea, right? It is an exciting way to experience being in another country! In this post, I will tell you more about how that can work.

Because of this, the process is not as structured as in exchanges. Also, the internship offerings are more diverse which makes every internship one of a kind. That is why I will write more personally about my internship instead of explaining generally how internships work. Things that happened to me, may be completely different for you if

I got the first email from my exchange university almost at the end of October and I had been waiting for it since the beginning of September. Maybe I am a bit impatient, but waiting for this email was the most stressful thing in my exchange preparation (what if there is something wrong and they never send me the instructions???? I can’t go!!!). With waiting for answers to all my emails that followed this one, of course. How hard it is
