Summer has ended but your mind is full of memories to be recalled. Living in St. Petersburg makes Finland one of the most reachable destinations for traveling. Untouched nature, Nordic-styled cities, unique Finnish goods, and more appealing things make Finland a perfect location for your upcoming adventure. Today, I am going to take you through my Finland-on-a-budget trip and share some interesting details that you probably have not discovered yet.
A train from Wismar-Hamburg, with one change in a small-town Schwerin, to Hamburg airport, 2 hours at the airport with a huge anti-depressing pack of gummy bears, 2.5 hours on the plane and here we go, "you're arriving at St. Petersburg, the hero-city Leningrad. The temperature outside is 16 degrees Celsius. Thank you for choosing "Rossiya Airlines.'" Welcome home.
My name is Alexander, and I’m currently enrolled in a Master’s program at ITMO University. Originally, I’m from Pskov, and completed by Bachelor’s in 2018 at Pskov State University. Five years ago I was seriously upset that I couldn't go to study in St. Petersburg. Studying in a large city is more interesting and gives more opportunities. Nevertheless, I was lucky!
In my third post I will tell you about the Buddy System and student events at Tomas Bata University in Zlin, a small Czech city where I spent my exchange semester. You can also read my first and second post about my student exchange in the Czech republic.

Everything started two years ago with a cake which I baked for one of my groupmates' birthdays. I made that cake in a multicooker. The cake had a really strange shape and looked like melted jelly, but everyone who tasted it liked it! After that, my friends started asking me to bake something for their friends and family.
What is it like to be an exchange student in the Czech Republic? I will share with you my experience last semester and write a few posts. In this blog I’m going to describe the country and Zlin, the city where the university is located, and share with you about the Czechs and the budget. Let’s start!
