Settled down in Finland: The journey continues

The morning of this day was spent with Niko Varila (our tutor), performing procedures and all necessary paperwork, such as opening a bank account in Finland. For this we chose the Säästopänkki, a bank located in a corner of Kauppatori, between Prima and the Lutheran Church and close to Whiskey Bar and the color green seems the corporative one. Then we went to the TYS Office walking from Kauppatori, with the goal of getting to know the city. So, we saw in the way the Public Library in Linnankatu,   in front of one Pizzea-Kebab (the Ritch) one of the "cheapest" in the city and a place that caught my eye; The Dynamo, Rio (Aura) , Turku Cathedral, which fit several things to note, as it has suffered several fires and the right side and the left side are completely different the one to each other and some buildings that belong to Abo Akademi. Then we took one of the main streets of the city, Hameenkatu, which leads to the roads leading to Helsinki and Tampere, the country's capital and second largest and the second most important city of Finland, respectively. So, we walked along this street, and we reached the Turku School of Economics where indeed there is a Hesburguer and we kept walking and walking until we saw part of the University of Turku and finally got to the Student Village where there is TYS Office. Here we simply sign the leases floor. Coming Back we took a different route to return to the center, this time it was a path that runs along the river. Notably we saw a shop in a street leading from the river to Kauppatori, which sold leather clothing (jackets, boots, accessories) as well as T-shirts, sweatshirts and jackets bombers. Later I would know that this store is called "Leather Heaven" or "paraíso de cuero" in Spanish and is a store that has the same number as throughout Finland. In the same street (Yliopistonkatu) a little later, we saw a Spanish consulate, made us curious pareción the sea but liked it a lot.

The evening went smoothly, using it mostly to make plans for the evening. In the end he was going to the Student, since apparently some good cheering mounted in kitchens. To get there, we had to catch up kauppatori 18 and then fifty, fifty-one, fifty-three or fifty-four any of which would leave us at the door of the office TYS. When we got there, we waited for them to come after us and take us to the kitchen of the building where the people were. He spent a ratillo and so, Alf and Rachel, two Spanish erasmus carrying a little more time there than I came for us and took us to 12A, to the kitchen on the second floor. There I show one of my most tangible qualities, overactive socialization. As I introduced myself to not only all the people who had known social networks (such as large Mikel Zabala, Juanjo Jaime Perez or Flames) also all those who were in the room, was a non-stop. Also, as everyone was kind and friendly, I had no problem meeting people follow. The balance of the evening would be a nearly 30 people, all great but to name anyone in particular, would be a certain Hosse. Iranian guy who was doing the master here and this is his third year, I found out later was the chairman of the Abo Akademi ESN. Apparently, as I commented the other day, I fell really well from the start. He said he was delighted to see someone so active greeting and presenting a lot of people do not even know, that this is the spirit of what the search, which is nothing other than the party, wherever and with whom be.

The course of the evening in the Student was great, the odd video shows how great was that. Korpiklaani I managed to put on and it is good to know, that is where the fun korpiklaani good. When it ended, the rock started to go downtown and get to marilyn (one disc). As everyone went by bike, a few had to walk. Passing Library, Eloy and I hear a noise that we called in a pub that was right in front, what did Dynamo? Well obviously come and take one beers. We were there one ratino and then went to join with all the rock. But along the way, in Kauppatori, a Finn who was sitting on a bench with two others called us and invited us to a beer each. There were a good time talking to that guy (very rare indeed) and anyone that passed between us and kept talking with us. The conclusion of that is that many Finns when they drink (and see that Finnish society have a serious problem with alcohol) are the cock. The conversation ended metal treating, Kalevala, national pride and other frikadas, even spoke in Spanish with a guy who called by phone to one of the bystanders XD.

Already in Marilyn, free entry, we joined the rest of Spanish and even more still met. Now, Marilyn is a nightclub that have nothing to do with Spain or at least the ones I've seen (the Badajoz). It is fucking great, the music is not as shit as often happens in these places and the strangest people of all suits. Note that in here, Eloy and I were talking with a Finnish long time, more than me and in the end turned out to be a pair of camels that we wanted to sell.

Here ends my second day in Turku, Ending Balance = Excellent.
