My first day in Pori

Hello again!

I arrived in Pori yesterday, so I wanted to update you! The journey was fine, I had to get up around 5 o’clock in the morning so it was quite exhausting! From Helsinki I took the bus to Pori and the bus driver was so kind! He was joking all the time and he spoke English so well! So my first meeting with a Finnish person was really good ;)!
From the bus station, my tutor named Sari, picked me up with her car and she brought me to the “Etappi”. She was also very kind and explained me some things about Finland and showed me the University. When we arrived in the Etappi, she introduced me to some people and that was really nice, because of course I don’t know anyone around here yet.
I live in a apartment with a Spanish girl and we share the kitchen and the bathroom. I have my own room which is great! The Spanish girl, named Irene, took me to a birthday party so I could get to know more people who are living here. Unfortunately a lot of the people who are studying here right now, are leaving in two weeks.
Monday is my first day of my internship and I met a guy who is doing the same internship like me, so we had a nice chat! I also talked to Sanne, a girl who is doing her internship right now and she’s leaving on Friday so I will do some of her tasks. They were excited about the internship so I can’t wait until Monday!
The environment is nice by the way. The weather is great, the sun is shining so I’m about to take a walk to the city.

I’ll keep you all up to date about my internship!
Kind regards,
Sanne
