Far Away but Still So Near

Postcards from around the World Sent by TAMK Students

Greeting from Salzburg, Austria

Spending a semester in Salzburg has been an unforgettable experience. Between long study days and spontaneous trips to the mountains, my exchange has been a mix of challenging studies and amazing outdoor adventures.

Life in Greece

Living in Greece has given me the opportunity to experience a different culture while continuing my studies in International Business. During my time here, I have been able to observe how studying, working culture, and everyday life differ from Finland. In this postcard I share my experiences about studying, spare time, and cultural differences between Greece and Finland.

Journey in the Heart of Bayern, Germany

There is a specific kind of magic in the quiet rhythm of a Bayern morning in Aschaffenburg. Six months ago, I arrived here with a suitcase full of expectations and a fair amount of nervousness about my role as a Visual Communication intern. Today, as I look back at my time at S-Salon, I’m not just leaving with a portfolio of designs—I’m leaving with a completely new perspective on what it means to work with purpose, precision, and a little bit of Bayern heart.

Greetings from the wine capital, Bordeaux

My experience was exceptionnel in Bordeaux. I have spend two semesters here. In the first semester I had classes regarding wine business and sustainability and in my second semester I was studying management classes. Bordeaux has a vibrant city life which I enjoyed really much.

Greetings from Pilzen, Czech Republic

I am currently on an exchange in Plzeň, in the Czech Republic. I have been here for one month so far, and I still have two months ahead of me. The exchange has been going well up to this point, and I have already seen and experienced a lot.
