14-12 : Survival finland : do you want to see your mother back?


I'm sure you want to go back home one day and give a hug to your mam!! So I might be a bit late to give you advice, but like many of us, I didn't know anything about Finland before....so I had to learn first!!


=> Keep the moral up, help yourself:

*Yo have to admit that the forecast temperature is not in Fahrenheit but in Celsius degress





*You might not be the most adapted animal to live here: bring your best waterproof shoes






*Forget about the style and your best Channel dress, try Eskimo fashion instead


=> Finnish society

*Try to say "kiitos" as much as possible, they like it so much !

*Do not hold the door behind you, even if the following person is old or pregnant

*Hide your emotions, enthousiasm is forbidden from Monday morning till Friday night

*If you are a citizen of the following coutries (Russia, Sweden, ....), try, as much as possible, to hide your origins from Friday night till Monday morning

*From Sunday morning till Friday night, do not smile; it could be perceived as provocation

*If you are a man, never say that the sauna is too hot. Should you get out, find another excuse !


=> Make finish friend

*Do not talk to them when they don't, do not try to avoid blanks in the conversation. You might even enjoy it one day!

*Do not make fun of them

*Never say "no" when you are invited to Sauna

*Do no ever bring your Spanish friends


=> You should never say:


*I love Russia and Russian people

*Can you lend me one euro?

*Do you speak English?

*Can I buy you a drink?

*Never try to criticize Finland, just compliments!


=> Erasmus life


Born in 1469 in Rotterdam, Erasmus was ......, then.........Consequently, the chuch was........Nonetheless, .......I know, you are not all found of history, so i made it short !!!

I found a very nice video on internet about the Erasmus life in Finland, I think most of you will recognize their arrival in Finland and for the others, it's a video to see, enjoy!!!!!!!!!
