In general comparisons and observations. First what I noticed here is that houses here in Finland are smaller. If you want to buy a house or an apartment you have to pay at least twice as much. Well you need to pay twice as much for cars too in Finland. Mikkeli is smaller than Ljubljana and people here are much more quiet and peacful. People here ride very subdued. It’s not like in Slovenia when are all nervous and blow over each other. But tires still slip now and then because at night road freezes. Mikkeli has a small shop and a shoping mall. It was interesting for me that such a small shop had security. I think in Ljubljana there is nothing better than here in Mikkeli, except that it is bigger city and you have more things there. Living in Slovenia is quite different than here. There many more people go during the week for lunch or dinner in the restaurant. I was told that young people drink alcohol in cars so they avoid being seen. One person thats sober is driving them around and other three are drinking. Otherwise, life abroad is always interesting and fun. I loved it that I had to speak English everywhere. So it seems to me that the best way to learn a foreign language is, if you go live abroad. Also is fun to live abroad. Meet new people and their culture, always occurs something funny and something you will never forget in your life. For me it was one of the best experiences of my life.
