Vaihtotunnelmia Toulousesta

Siitä on nyt noin vuosi, kun aloin katsella vaihtokohteita täksi lukuvuodeksi. Vaihtoehtoja oli monia, joten tähän sai hyvin kulumaan aikaa. Vaihtoyliopistoni Université Toulouse Jean Jaurès vaikutti itselleni parhaalta vaihtoehdolta, joten hain ja pääsin tänne, mistä olen super iloinen.

Vaihtoon valmistautuminen alkoi kesällä, kun sain huoneen opiskalija-asuntolasta. Asuntoa varten täytyi koota tarvittavat dokumentit kasaan ja hakea vuokrantakausta, mikä aluksi vaikutti isolta hommalta, mutta hoituikin lopulta ihan kätevästi. Yliopistoni täälä ei vaatinut paljoa valmisteluja, joten tärkeimpänä ennen lähtöä oli hoitaa asuntoasiat kuntoon ja pakata. Ennen lähtöä oli vaikea ymmärtää, että muutan vuodeksi pois Suomesta, ja vielä lentokentällä tuntui kuin olisin lähdossä vain lyhyelle lomamatkalle.

 

Ensimmäinen viikko perillä kului lähinnä kierrellessä kaupunkia, ostellessa kaikkea tarvittavaa kotiin ja tutustuessa uusiin ihmisiin. Tulin tänne melko ajoissa ennen koulun alkua, mikä oli hyvä ratkaisu, sillä ehdin tutustua kaupunkiin ja hankkia mm. puhelinliittymän ja pankkitilin rauhassa.

Yliopiston ensimmäinen viikko taas meni lukujärjestyksen selvittelyyn ja kurssien suunnitteluun. Opinnot täällä eivät ole mitenkään järkyttävän erilaisia verrattuna Suomeen, mutta joitain eroja on helppo huomata esimerkiksi opetustyyleissä, mikä vaihtelee valtavasti eri opettajien välillä.

Olen ollut täällä nyt melkein koko ensimmäisen lukukauden ja olen erittäin tyytyväinen päätökseeni lähteä vaihtoon. Toulouse on kaunis paikka ja siitä on muotoutunut ihana kotikaupunki. Enää ei ole ollenkaan vaikea käsittää, että asun täällä enkä ole vain lomamatkailija.



Terveisin, Heini

  1. Thanks for another great post. Where else may anybody get that type of info in such an ideal way of writing? I have a presentation next week, and I’m at the search for such information.

  2. I have noticed that over the course of building a relationship with real estate proprietors, you’ll be able to come to understand that, in most real estate purchase, a payment is paid. In the end, FSBO sellers will not ”save” the commission rate. Rather, they try to win the commission by way of doing the agent’s occupation. In accomplishing this, they spend their money as well as time to execute, as best they could, the jobs of an adviser. Those responsibilities include exposing the home via marketing, offering the home to all buyers, constructing a sense of buyer desperation in order to trigger an offer, making arrangement for home inspections, dealing with qualification assessments with the financial institution, supervising maintenance tasks, and assisting the closing of the deal.

  4. Howdy this is somewhat of off topic but I was wanting to know if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding know-how so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  5. Hola! I’ve been following your website for a while now and finally got the bravery to go ahead and give you a shout out from Houston Texas! Just wanted to say keep up the good work!

  6. Thanks for your tips. One thing I’ve noticed is the fact banks as well as financial institutions know the dimensions and spending practices of consumers as well as understand that most people max out their real credit cards around the trips. They properly take advantage of this specific fact and start flooding a person’s inbox and snail-mail box together with hundreds of Zero APR card offers soon after the holiday season closes. Knowing that if you’re like 98 in the American open public, you’ll get at the chance to consolidate financial debt and move balances towards 0 rate credit cards.

  7. I have seen loads of useful points on your website about computers. However, I have got the judgment that laptops are still not nearly powerful sufficiently to be a option if you typically do things that require loads of power, for instance video enhancing. But for world wide web surfing, statement processing, and the majority of other frequent computer work they are okay, provided you never mind the small screen size. Many thanks sharing your thinking.

  8. There are some interesting cut-off dates on this article but I don?t know if I see all of them middle to heart. There may be some validity but I’ll take hold opinion until I look into it further. Good article , thanks and we want extra! Added to FeedBurner as effectively

  12. Its like you read my mind! You appear to know so much about this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you can do with some pics to drive the message home a little bit, but other than that, this is excellent blog. A great read. I will certainly be back.

  13. I am not sure where you are getting your info, but good topic. I needs to spend some time learning much more or understanding more. Thanks for wonderful information I was looking for this information for my mission.

  14. An interesting discussion is value comment. I feel that it is best to write extra on this subject, it may not be a taboo subject but typically people are not enough to talk on such topics. To the next. Cheers

  15. Oh my goodness! an incredible article dude. Thank you Nonetheless I’m experiencing problem with ur rss . Don?t know why Unable to subscribe to it. Is there anybody getting identical rss downside? Anybody who knows kindly respond. Thnkx
