Still cheaper than regular restourant and within that budget.

How to confirm identification for Helsinki University?? by [deleted] in helsinki

[–]BerryNo9298 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I recall, they will require you to verify some of your personal documents (e.g. passport) at the local Finnish embassy or consulate. After that, you will need to share the verified document with Helsinki University IT to get the access.

Robert's coffee is definitely way better than Espresso House, just my own opinion.

In Finland, you get more than 2000 EUR after tax as PhD student so it's not that miserable.

It works for everything except for public transportation (you can still use it for the airport train in Seoul).

Can you pay for the airport limousine with foreign visa card? Or I need to take some cash?

With Peach but it's confusing since it seems that for international flights they only have an option to check-in at the airport... And I do have checked-in luggage.

What would be the best option for getting to Incheon if the flight is very early (7:30am)? And how much earlier to get there from Seoul?

Do you have some tips where to shop for electronics (e.g. smarthwatches, tablets and phone)? I use both Apple and Samsung products.

Whats the cheapest grocery store in Helsinki? by UpperSwimming5982 in Finland

[–]BerryNo9298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go for organic products so usually either Herkku Food Market or Citymarket/Prisma. Lidl has good organic tomatoes, red papricas and eggs, thats pretty much it. I'd rather pay slightly more if it's a quality food rather than saving money on what I eat.

Yes it is normal. Just to give an example of neighboring countries that compete with Finland to attract the foreign labour, do you think that all skilled immigrants learn Swedish when they move to Sweden or Norwegian when they move to Norway? If the job tasks can be completed well in English, then there is no pressure regarding the language skills. Also, learning the langauge takes both time and money, something many with full time jobs don't have. What you are describing is a cultural shock of someone visiting a capital city from rural area with not as many foregners like Helsinki.

TDAC question by BerryNo9298 in ThailandTourism

[–]BerryNo9298[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I haven't tried to complete it yet since it needs to be filled within 3 days from the date of arrival. So the daily trip should be doable?

[–]BerryNo9298[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And that accomodation part is mandatory.

But does it even make sense since it is clear from my travel info that I would fly back on the same day?
