More Than the Degree

Kicking off the semester with my old and new buddies

It was that time of the year again when campus lit up with the appearance of new faces. For our Sustainable Entrepreneurship Master's program, that meant meeting the second cohort. We, the second-years, decided that nothing can compete with fun games and free dinners for the best bonding experience.

We spent two hours playing bowling, pool, and darts while chitchatting and getting to know each other. For me, it is never the same story behind why someone would apply to our program, as there is just so much diversity. In fact, despite being a program under the School of Business, applicants from all backgrounds can give it a try without needing previous credits or experience in the field of Business. If this sounds interesting to you, read more about our program here:

Anyway, we wrapped up the night with a cozy dinner at Fat Lizard. Food was great, but the company was even better :) And with that we were full of energy to welcome the hectic first weeks of study.

The Summer I… decided to move to Finland 🌿✨

The summer I decided to move to Finland didn’t start with a dramatic moment. There was no instant epiphany, no single turning point. Instead, it was a slow accumulation of thoughts, feelings, and what-ifs that finally tipped me over. In the summer when I turned 16, I visited Finland for the first time. It was a short 2-week trip to a sports center near Helsinki, where we went hiking, camping, kayaking, and even played disc golf. In general, a very Finnish summer experience.

🎓 Orientation Week at Aalto University

Orientation week at Aalto University isn’t just about lectures and schedules, it’s the real start of your life in Finland. Having gone through it twice, I can say it’s intense, exciting, and sometimes a little overwhelming… but also one of the best parts of the whole experience.
