My decision to study IBM at TAMK is one of the few choices I've made that has proven to be a perfect fit. Being here is precisely the enchanting adventure I had envisioned from the very beginning.
Immigrating in the gloomiest month in Finland, and well, I thought, 'Why not add a little extra challenge?' Pregnant and all, I was in for a royal adventure!
My name is Bianca, and I am from Brazil. I am a student in the Master's degree program for Teaching, Learning, and Media Education at Tampere University. Here is the story of how I chose to come and study at Tampere University.

Moving to Finland for studies is an exciting yet challenging endeavor, and it will be even more challenging if you aren’t prepared to move your life over here for the next couple of years. This was something that constantly ran through my mind as someone who was 1) moving away long-term from my home country for the first time ever; and 2) deathly afraid of being underprepared for anything. Hence, this blog was borne out of the paranoia I had before coming here, the experience I’ve had in my studies thus far, and the genuine desire to be of some help to all the new faces that will be gracing the campuses later this year (mostly this last one). Now, we won’t be listing every single item you should stuff into your luggage, but rather a few essentials (and a couple of surprises) that I think might make your transition to life in Tampere much smoother.
