Dear exchanges,
Welcome to Finland! 💙🧡 If you’ve done your research, you might already know that you’ve entered a magical land of a thousand lakes, Santa Claus, and Moomins. Of course, there are also rumors that the wonderous beings that live here survive only on black coffee and Salmiakki, as well as the energy that comes from regular trips to the Sauna without speaking a word to each other. ☕🧖♀️ While all these things are more or less true, we think you’ll discover that there’s a bit more to Finnish culture than that. So let us be your expert guides while you start your adventures in Finland and dive into the unique student culture offered by the Aalto University School of Business. The journey has only just begun! ✨
As you already know from thoroughly reading the Welcome Letter you received (hint hint), KY-Sub’s mission is to help you experience life in Finland to the fullest and to integrate you into the rich student culture here in Otaniemi. 🤩 Through our legendary sitz parties, theme parties, events, and trips to amazing places like Lapland and Kiljava, you will forge new friendships, explore different parts of Finland, and make memories that will last you a lifetime.
The Welcome Evening is where we’ll write the first page of our wonderous tale together. 📜 During the evening you will hear about KY-Sub, learn all about the fun events that we have planned for you this semester, and participate in checkpoints hosted by both KY-Sub and some other KY groups it’s important for you to know. Ticket sales for KY-Sub’s two big trips, the Lapland Trip🏂⛄ and Kiljava International Cottage Trip🌲, will also happen during the event. After the informational portion of the evening, you’ll get to party together with your fellow exchange students, tutors, and Subbies to kick off your semester here in Finland! 🎉🥂🕺
Welcome Evening is also your ONLY chance to buy your overalls. Overalls are a big part of Finnish student culture and have a long tradition among university students in Finland. Each field of study within each school in Finland has its own color for its overalls, and ours here in Aalto University School of Business are “dollar green”. 💵🤑 With the overalls on, you´re instantly recognized as part of the KY-family and as a representative of our business school out in the public, whether that be during a pub crawl or at a student party. At many university events, including our events and trips, you will get patches (“badges”) which you can then sew onto your overalls in any way you like. This makes your overalls a great souvenir from your studies in Finland when you return to your home country. 🛫 And while it’s written in fabric and not on paper, this also a great way to record the story of your life in here in Finland! The overalls cost €30, so if you want to buy overalls don’t forget to bring some money with you! 💳
The event will start at 6pm SHARP at BMK, also known as Old Startup Sauna (Betonimiehenkuja 3, Espoo). Please remember to sign up at the link above and do your best to be on time as the program will start right away. We will be serving drinks (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic) but if you feel extra thirsty, feel free to bring your own drinks as well. NO GLASS BOTTLES PLEASE!
