“Cold temperature and cold people”
Johnny
Spain, Graduate
, 2013
OverallI am from Spain and this is my impression others may see different. But I had really a hard time with the cold winter and could also not connect to the other people. Looks they the locals like to stay among themselves. It may be just a different mentality I am not used to.
My courses were mostly in English but the people like to speak Finnish even when none Finnish speaking people are around. This can be quite rude.
Honestly mi am disappointed and would not go again.
