One month later I´m here, writing about this new experience that I´m living. The 2nd of January I arrived in Helsinki from Madrid, it was a really tough day. First of all I had to get up about 3 a.m in my town (León, in the northwest of Spain), then I had to go to Madrid to take the flight, but I had with me two huge suitcases which exceeded the allowed weight, so I was really lucky because I didn´t have to pay. Also, I had another problem, one hour before the flight my backpack was broken! Luckily my father could repair it. More random things happened to me, when I was in the airport check I had to take away my boots, there were a lot of people and a big queue to the control and when I could finish the control one of my boots wasn´t there, but finally, I could find it. I had to say that the flight was good, when we arrived in Helsinki we met another Spanish girl, who now is my friend, and took a train to go to the train station in order to take another train to go to Turku (where I live), unfortunately the train to Turku was delayed one hour and we were frizzing waiting in the street. Too many hours later we arrived in Turku and took a taxi to the Student village (where we are living) and it wasn´t expensive (surprising!). I was so tired and I had pain in my arms because of the suitcases, so I got into the room and lied on the bed. The room was better than what I expected, it´s big for one person, but I live in the ground floor so it´s not warm enough for me, but I bought a heater and now I am always warm, so it´s not a problem! And also, the best part of the day was when I sit on the bed and started eating my Spanish omelette (one of my favourite meals) made of my parents. As you can see my first day wasn´t the best day of my life, but now, one month later, the things have changed and I have a lot of adventures and experiences to tell you, see you soon!
I have more days here in Turku, but a lot of people started leaving and it´s sad because you realize that the end is coming, and we have to don´t waste our last month (less than one month..) here, I have a lot of things that I want to do before leaving so I´m doing a list with one friend to don´t miss anything. In one hand I want to go home because I miss my family, friends, the good weather (the sun mostly), and the food of course, also the lifestyle, but...on the other hand I don´t want to leave at all!! Here I can live my life, I met new people, I´ve learnt about other cultures, other meals, other customs, and I am happy here, I know I will miss a lot of things when I go home. I will miss the friends I made here, of course, I will miss Unica restaurants (at home I have to cook every day), I will miss the landscapes and the peace you can feel here, I will miss the safety, I will miss my room and the city, and being discovering and travelling.. I have one more trip before leaving, I´m...
