What this blog is about:
Well, I am a German student of prehistorical archaeology and I am currently doing an exchange term in Finland, at the Univerisity of Turku.
I wanted to go there not especially because this university offers a variety of courses in archaeology in English (in fact all archaeology courses are given in Finnish), but because I just love this country, the language, the finnish people. So my interest in being here is not academic but rather personal. I want to improve my knowledge of the Finnish language which I have started to learn autodidactically around 10 years ago.
So, I've been here in Finland for more than one month already.
Actually I've been thinking about creating a blog for my stay here as soon as a friend of mine - who is also doing an exchange semester - told me about his blog. But until now I've just been too lazy to do so. Currently I'm thinking about whether to write this blog in German or in English, I haven't decided yet. And since I am speaking English here most of the time actually it feels quite natural to write this blog in English. And besides, I need to catch up one month or something, so I'm going to copy a few thoughts about my stay here which I have already written and which are in English. Maybe, from time to time there will be something German in between. If I feel like it.
Good. That being said.
I think I will start to tell about my first few weeks in seperate posts, sum up one week in one post or something because - to be honest - not so much has happened here in the first few weeks. If there's something more interesting I may write a separate entry for that.
Yes. Otherwise, have fun with this blog.
(I need to find out how to tweak the appearance a bit. Are there comments possible? Because I really appreciate comments.)
