Faces and Places

Here are photos taken of various people and places, some closer and more meaningful than others, put here because I like the photos. I have had a wonderful year and many details are missing, particularly due to my lack of blog maintenance. I had imagined a much more in-depth, pervasive and up-to-date online portrayal of my year, but found it was not something I could keep up with. Instead, here are pictured trips/times that I made a point to take many photos of, a large gap being left between January and the present.

In any case, I am satisfied with many of these photos and hope that I have captured a picture of my time away, no matter how fragmented, true to reality or lacking. I have no idea how to rate that, and don't know how many people are viewing or reading what I post, so to those who do, I hope you have a little sliver of Finland to take with you.

Your photographs are beautiful and the story of your time in Finland is very compelling. One thing I noticed with your blog (and with others who went to Tampere through a study-abroad program) is that no one writes about the actual course work. That is so interesting because one goes abroad through a university program but that seems to be the one thing most people write nothing about.

I'm a UO student who is thinking about Finland as my destination next year and I'd so appreciate your reflections on the courses you took. How did you decide what to take. Are there courses on that list provided on the UO Study Abroad page that you would recommend? Discourage?
