Turku, my University Town

by LysDor - last update: Jun 10, 2004

It is here in TURKU that I got the chance to start my University studies and spent 7 wonderful years!
.....
Turku is only 175 KM from Helsinki which is a 2 - 2,5 hours drive by car or bus.
......
Once my only reason to come to Turku is my dentist, who's a VERY good friend of mine - he is extremely gentle :-)!
But once here I'll try to visit some of my other friends at the same time.
And beside, driving here gives me plenty of time to get scared before my dentist appointment...LOL!

Now that I spent more and more time at the country house at Ypaja which is only 75km away from the cityIcan visit it on regular basis!

 Thanks Tiina for very interesting and informative page about Turku-your university city. I was fond of this city on my way to Sweden when I was waiting for a ferry. Time wasn't wasted! The castle, the Cathedral and Marina centre impressed me much. Privet!
