Sauna with friends


When I am thinking back to my time before Finland, I could never imagine going to Sauna with my friends just for fun. It was for me something that just older people do and nothing really interesting for me and I think also not interesting for any of my friends.

But Finland changed us. Now that I am used to Sauna, I am always planning my Sauna times like I am planning my meals or my laundry times. It is a fixed part of my week and day plans.

Here in Finland I learned how relaxing a Sauna with friends can be after a long school day especially during the wintertime. The heat warms up the whole body and the time with friends and sometimes a cool drink in the Sauna helps to relax and calm down.

For me Sauna is a routine that I don’t want to miss anymore and what I really want to establish as well in my day planning at home. It helps me to have some minutes just for me, calm down and after that focus on the main things again.

What is this Blog about?

The first of my Blog posts should be used to give you as the readers an idea of what the whole Blog should be about and what the people are that I am addressing it to. The main goal for that this Blog should aim is to make it easier for students that just arrive or will arrive in the future to make their way in Finland and especially in the area of Turku.

Arriving in Finland

When I arrived in Finland in August 2019, this was the first time that I went to northern Europe. My trip to Finland started at my home. From there I had to travel approx. 20min to the international Airport of Frankfurt. Since I choose Finnair for the Flight, I went to Terminal 2 there and did all the necessary stuff. (security check, …) In the airplane, it looked pretty much like in every plane. When my flight arrived in Helsinki Vantaa Airport, I felt quite comfortable because the Airport is not that big and there are lots of signs so that it is easy to find the right way out.
