How did I find out about Helsinki Friends? What kind of an impact has it had on my life?

I arrived to Helsinki about a month ago for an Erasmus internship. The HR of the company I am working in here invited me to Helsinki friends and I am really grateful for that. Mainly because I know I can ask there for anything and someone will always answer me. That is very helpful for me as a newcomer. Also I met some new people because of the group which is very important for me.here are not many Erasmus student yet, so this group is a great way to meet some people. 🙂

What do I think we could improve to make the experience more enjoyable for members?

Actually I don’t know… The Telegram group works nicely and I don’t know about anything… I think it works exactly how it should work. 🙂

What would I say to anyone either moving to Helsinki or visiting – would I recommend to join us and why?

For sure! If you are new to city as me the group can help you a looot. New people will always have a lot of questions and not you can’t Google all of the answers so because of that the group is very powerful. And of course meeting new friends. 🙂

Anything else I would like to add?

Thank you for this group! It is really helpful and I don’t feel alone here. 🙂
