Moving from Spain
Moving from Spain
Hi everybody!
First I need to apologize about my english, it is not as good as I would like it to be, so many years without using it... anyway...
I am spanish, and I live in Madrid, but I've been to Suomi a few times, just on vacation and things like that... But that was enough to fall in love with the country.
I want to move to Finland with my girlfriend who is from finland. I would like to look for a job there and continue with my studies of physics (currently I am studing as well I am working), but I am a little afraid about the language and, of course, the freezing cold in winter.
My girlfriend is teaching me a little suomi, I find it really difficult, but step by step I am getting it
My trip to go there will be in three years time, because my girlfriend is a doctor and has a conctract here in Spain untill 2007, so I have time to learn a little bit more of suomi.
Last time I was in Helsinki somebody told me that it was not very difficult to find a job without speaking suomi, but I am not sure if that is true or not...
Anyway, I would appreciate any suggestions or whatever
Regards,
Emilio -- Eomer

Wow, that was quick answer indeed!! Thank you!!
I am afraid that my qualifications and experience is focused on business and computers.
I study physics just for fun, because when sing in the University my first option was studing computers engineering, but the admission was plenty of people and physics was empty
Im just thinking... I can teach you Spanish and you can teach me Finnish...
Just curiosity... What part time jobs are you doing?? Just to make myself an idea of what could I do there
thank you!!

Yep, I know about this summer... every day it was rainy, but just for one or two hours, the rest of the day it was sunny and good weather...
I ussually go to finland once a year, in summer, but next year we are planning to go in winter...
My girlfriend says that I must know how is finland in winter before going, but i know that she wants to get rid of me leaving me there in a ice statue... (keep it secret)

Good. I like some real winter. It's a bit too long though (5 months). To come here for a winter holiday should be fun.Eomer wrote:Yep, I know about this summer... every day it was rainy, but just for one or two hours, the rest of the day it was sunny and good weather...
