But the Finnish winter doesn't automatically have to be cold. Syssoeva has a degree in psychology from MGU, Moscow State University. All three newcomers to Helsinki arrived in August this year. Hence, both Bjork and Syssoeva have already experienced Finland. That isn't true for Li, 23.
China is so noisy compared to Finland.
I was also fascinated by the beauty of the landscape. For Stephanie Bjork, coming back again after ten years was also a great experience. I was impressed by the increased cultural diversity in Finland. In the USA, a small country like Finland doesn't attract a lot of attention. But, people's knowledge about other countries increases in a more globalized world.
