Now that you are (or are about to be) here in Jyväskylä, Finland, for your studies, how about getting a deeper insight into everyday life in Finland? The JYU Local Friendship Programme will help you find a local friend with common interests and hobbies.
The aim of the programme is to help students of all levels (undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate) feel at home in Jyväskylä, Finland, and to help them integrate into the community. The programme has been running for more than 20 years, it's free and based on voluntary activities. As in the film Casablanca, the programme is often "the beginning of a beautiful friendship".
