These are from my first weekend in Turku. The first days that I was here, all I did was sleep and go to an orientation meeting. On Friday night, I finally met people and we went out into the city.
This thing is close to the student village. It's part pig, part duck. I guess the students put a Santa hat on it every winter.
This is my neighbor Natalia from Poland. She's very funny, and we talk about California together since she worked at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk this past summer.
The Aura River, which cuts through town, is starting to freeze. When I went to the city center I found this rusted bike next to it.
Here are more of my friends from Poland.
This is my least favorite grocery store here in Finland. I've never been there, but its name is trying to trick me! They aren't really having a sale. Sale doesn't even mean that in Finnish.
El Gringo Cafe Latino. Finnish Mexican food, eh?
The Turku Cathedral
The River Aura
