From Tampere to Tallinn, my life as an exchange student.
I went to Estonia for a nursing placement and came back with a lot more than clinical experience. Here is a short account of what those three months looked like.

Sunshine and studying in Australia
What an opportunity, what a once-in-a-lifetime -experience. Here I'm telling you about my exchange program and life in Australia :)
G'day from Australia!
Welcome to read of my experiences on the other side of the world - which might be just the start for what's more to come
Greetings from Plzen, Czech Republic
I have been living as a exchange student here in Plzen from Finland for two months now, I have one month left. I'm a nursing student, so I have been completing my clinical internships here at two local hospitals.
Greetings from a country with three languages!
Did you guess it? Greetings from Belgium!
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.
Greetings from Sofia, Bulgaria!
Здравей! I have now been in Sofia, Bulgaria for about an month and I still have another month to go. I have spent a great time here so far and I'm sure the last month is going to be great too.
Greetings from Italy!
Italy has been treating me well. I am having an internship at the Hospital of Perugia and during free time I have been discovering Perugia and the beautiful little towns and Cities around it. I work at the Urology department and it is exiting to learn more about the regular pre- and postoperative work with surgery patients. My tutor nurses are very nice and they teach me Italian along the working hours. We have a great athmosphere at our department and I felt welcome from the very first day. The first picture is taken in a city called Spello. I spent a gorgeous Saturday discovering the beautiful streets of it. I also forgot that siesta is a real and actually occuring thing especially in the smaller cities of Italy during the days, so insted of eating in a restourant as planned I prepared myself a pasta in a camper van that me and my friend lived in for the first part of the trip. Food is absolutely delicious. I have deeply fallen in love with the Extra Virgin Olive Oils that the area of Umbria has to offer, for example. Sun has been shining warmly during the autumn and it warms my heart especially when knowing that in Finland it is getting quite dark and cold.
Greetings From Malaysia
Dear reader, My exchange here in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, is coming to an end. The weather has been pleasant, and the studies have been somewhat challenging. I have learned a lot about Malaysia, cultural differences, and myself while being far away from home.
