Funikulaari on vitsi, mutta kallis sellainen. Takuu toimimattomasta maisemahissistä umpeutui, ja korjaukset maksaa nyt kaupunki. Rautatiesilta ylitti nelinkertaisesti alkuperäisen budjetin. Toriparkkia rakentaessa tuli vaurioita ja vajoamia ympäröiviin rakennuksiin. Nyt katukivetykset irtoilevat, ja kaupunki maksaa kaatuneille ihmisille korvauksia. Kirjalansalmen rakenteilla oleva silta notkahti.

Onko kyse vain sattumasta? Kirouksesta? Katalasta hybridihyökkäyksestä? Huonolaatuisesta työvoimasta? Kelvottomista kaupungin virkamiehistä?

Talvisia treffi ideoita Turussa? Täällä oli lanka treffiideoille mutta kaikki oli kovin kesäsiä ja ei aleta kesään asti odottelemaan. Tuleeko kellään mitään mieleen?

which barbershop do u suggest that speaks english fluently?

i live near the city centre and have been reading a lot in the evenings. since it’s been getting dark and cold, i haven’t been going out as much and i think going to a different environment could be better for my mental health. reading in my apartment or the main library seems like the only options right now, but the library closes at like 5.

does anybody know of any places that are open later? any little space that is sheltered and warm that i could read would be great. i’d even check out weird random places that any of you know about (for example some little bench in the mall or something lol)

Hello! What are winters like for families with small kids in Turku? Are you able to go outside every day? Are there many playgrounds and are you able to use them during wintertime? Are there places to go that both toddlers and adults can enjoy? Looking to hear as many details as possible :D Thanks!

I was in joensuu as a nursing student since 1 year but as of now it's almost impossible to find jobs, the school just wants us to do unpaid 3 months training again n again, so i decided to leave the school n join cooking school in Helsinki, but the problem is they offer only 60credits,4 months course n told if i find an appertienship then i can continue studies with them. I am so confused if i will leave my nursing or not since its just 4 months course, will there be problems with my visa if i didn't find appertienship in time?

Been living in Finland since 2012, mostly in Helsinki though also in Espoo, Oulu and (briefly) Tampere. I've felt like moving away again (and possibly for good) from Helsinki, and because I've also made several visits and have good memories from Turku, it might be my Zion, ha. So, before taking the plunge, or even better, in order to contextualize myself for preliminary explorations there in the upcoming months, would like to hear some opinions (from the top of your minds) regarding Turku's state and perception in terms of:

• Social connection
• Employment (in software dev., for instance)
• Order
• Safety
• and whatnot.

And preferably in comparison with Helsinki.

As of why I ask and what bothers me of Helsinki (region in general): Well, it is very subjective... I can simply say that despite I've tried to belong and put down roots for a decade, across studies, several jobs, and relationships, I do feel back to square one. And believe that one last beginning may reveal a new path Suomessa tai muualla...

Cheers!

I'm looking to buy a birthday cake for a friend. What's your favorite shop?

I recently moved to Finland and am trying to get to know some people. I thought picking up a hobby might be a good way to do that.

I already have a few precon Commander decks, but I’m open to exploring other games or formats as well! :)

Where’s the best place to get a tattoo, and how much does it typically cost?

Missä Turussa on sijainnut ravintola safari?

Hei people of Turku!

Is there a place in or close to Turku where I could attend dance classes as an adult? I'm in my late 20s and I never went to any dance school before, but I'd love to try to learn some modern hip hop or even brakedance moves, although I'm interested in any dance schools that has classes for adults.

I recently moved and just started learning the Finnish language, so being able to use English could be a plus for the time being.

Thank you for any recommendations!

Elikkä äijätyöporukalla tarkoitus syödä ja juoda, ja siittä illan aktiviteettiin.

Aiemmin oltiin rionissa, kaikki tykkäsi muuten, mutta tuli kiire aikataulujen kanssa.

Eli hakusessa sopiva laadukas ravintola, ilman pönötystä, joka aukeaisi mielellään jo 15:00 tai edes 15:30. Tai rionin tapauksessa ainakin ravintolan käynnistelyssä kesti. Noin 18:00 maissa olisi hyvä suunnata ravintolasta eteenpäin.

Hello all, I am trying to buy an iPhone 16 Pro paying monthly basis. Earlier I checked the price was almost 1400 euros, now showing 1269 euros. I am not sure would it be more less on black friday 26th November or would be the same price considering I am an international student, actually not sure about the discount or offer culture at Finland. Any input would be helpful, thank you.

Kova kattaus. Kiva että saadaa tämmöistä nannaa tänne Turkuun pitkästä aikaa.

I am considering to study exchange for one semester at University of Turku. My girlfriend is considering as well but due to her education, it will make better sense for her to study at Åbo Akademi. I have heard that the universities are very close to each other - geograpically.

This made me wonder: how much do the two universities collaborate/interfere with eachother? I'm mostly thinking about the social life. (outside of study hours: student clubs/associations, parties, other activites) Is it very divided between the universities?

Hi everyone -

We've been the proud owner of four chickens this last year, but unfortunately we have to move and cannot keep them. Does anyone know places (farms, petting zoos) or people that might take them in? They are healthy young hens (<2yrs)

I've been trying to sell them on Tori (where we initially bought them) but it's not the main season for buying hens. Looking for any advice!

Does anyone know if any stores will be open. I don't want to bring grocery items with me because I live really far away currently (I'm in the same country though). I can't fast due to health issues.. I don't wanna get into it but I need regular meals.

Will everything be closed? I might not be in Raisio before 6 or 7pm. Not sure yet. I don't have a car of my own so I will be using public transportation to get there.

I hope you can be polite, I'm a very sensitive person. Thanks in advance.

Moi, olen 16v, joka opiskelee Puolalanmäen lukiossa. En kuitenkaan ole turkuoriginaali. Tässä ois suunnitteilla matka Pariisiin jossain varhaisen uuden vuoden aikaan, mutta ongelmana on että olen suhtiinsa persauki. Olisiko jollain kokemusta ja ideoita työpaikoista ikäisenäni ja näinkin lyhyellä varoitusajalla. Kaikki vinkit on tervetulleita!

I’m planning a romantic dinner and looking for a cozy restaurant that would be perfect for a date night. I’d love something Asian or Italian, but I’m open to any cuisine if the ambiance is right.

Thanks in advance!

Looking for recommendations on a cozy, romantic bar or pub with a quiet, intimate atmosphere.

Fibre has been installed in my future street (and in the box in front of the house), but Telia and Elisa are not offering fibre connections at the address. Which companies are proposing this service these days?

Hey, A friend of mine and I are from Germany for a 3 month visit as part of our study program (Erasmus). We are currently trying to meet some students here in turku, though we don't really know where to look for 😅. Some of our coworkers have told us to look into the esn program, though it would be really helpful if you have some suggestions where to look for. Thanks :)
