I'm a Finnish guy aged something like 20+, who likes to travel. I'm studying economics in one of the universities over here and i'm really enjoying life with good food, nice people and a totally new enviroment.

This blog will be about everyday occurances from my life here. Some travel and also things i observe and my favourite part, all the bizarre things that will happen to you while being in a foreign country. Because there are alot of them, in reality they might not be bizarre but coming from a totally different background they can be, and alot so.

Disorganized school!

There hasn't been really much happening lately. I can say that the school's here are a little bit funny, or actually it's not going to be fun at all if any of the following things will happen to you.
There's cases of the office:

- Loosing your grades. One, two or maybe ten of them. Not cool!
- Loosing your payment receipts, so suddenly you have taken shitloads of classes but never paid the THOUSANDS of dollars you were supposed to pay.

Another funny thing is that we pay an additional fee to every course for the course material. This course material sometimes will never be and at other times you will get it the last lesson of your class.

Man it can be irritating sometimes, but I'm keeping my head up. :)

Lack of information

I often see a mix of superstition and 'knowledge' that has not been properly thought about. It happens everywhere, i can say that for sure it happens also in Europe. But still in someway it feels so typically Thai.
Talking about fastfood now again. Yesterday i talked with two people who had different opinions on Mc'Donalds. One guy i met he was so surprised that i said Mc'Donalds is not healthy food, and he wondered 'how come'? He never thought it could be unhealthy in any way at all. Never even heard about such a notion. The other person again, she refused to eat Mc'Donalds at all. She said it will give her breast-cancer. Where the heck that came from?
