IT support, Tampere / Seinajoki

First off- wow. This site has such an impact on the blessings of each others lives! How awesome is this?
I'm so glad to be part of this community =)

That being said, I would like to leave the United States (don't be shocked =D ) and pursue a life in Finland (yes, it has to do with a girl)

I've been Blessed with the ability to be great in IT / computer support, and would love an opportunity to do so in Finland.
I'm learning Finnish, but my friends have told me that Helsinki / Tampere would be ideal for me.

Does anyone have any advice to help make this dream a reality? I have been offered a free room in Tampere / seinajoki while I get settled, but of course being American 90 days isn't a lot to find and apply for a work visa!

What you're going to do here in 90 days? Applying for jobs? The application process takes time.
One realistic option can be to move here for the studies, for example Masters in IT etc., once you have education from the local institutes, it makes things bit easier. Also you will get some time to look for jobs etc.
And yes, Helsinki and Tampere are better places for the IT jobs in Finland.

I was hoping to have a job lined up before I get there.

(hey, a guy can dream, right?)

Going there for studies would be AWESOME. How does one go about doing that?
