Living in Turku as a student

During the Student Weeks, we introduce the City of Turku to new students. Venturing into university life will be much less scary when you already know something about the city you are studying and living in. We interviewed two students, Janette and Karlo, from Turku and asked their thoughts about the city and their neighborhoods.

This blog is written only in Finnish and you can find it in here. Try your Finnish skills!

We have also shared stories of international students, written in English. Get to know stories of 4 exchange students living in Turku or read Katerina's story, how she started her adult life in Turku, Finland.
