Get Together Day
The Get Together Day is an event organized for all exchange students at SAMK. It’s a day filled with fun and new experiences.
When coming to Finland, there are a number of things they want to do and this day is a great opportunity for them to dive into the Finnish culture!
In the morning, the students are given a presentation on Finland, on a possible culture shock and how to deal with this new environment. Later on in the afternoon, a few typical activities are organised depending on the season.
During the day, the students can enjoy Finnish food-tasting, typical Finnish games and outdoor activities like swimming in the lake, sledging, cross-country skiing, grilling sausages, etc.
Christmas Dinner
The Christmas dinner is an event organized for exchange students in order to end the semester in the most Finnish and festive way.
