Moi!

         I'm Thao aka Molly, an 18 year-old student from Vietnam. There are many Vietnamese in our class so maybe you already knew something about my country. About myself, I really like music, horror TV series and reality shows. Food is the love of my life so I want to taste as much as different kinds of food all around the world. 

         

         I was impressed by the friendliness and kindness of Fins and I can not wait to find out more about Finnish society and culture.

         

         Nice to meet you all :)

         

changdi Zheng introduction

Hi,

I am Changdi Zheng, from China. As an exchange student in Centria, I learn IT for 9 months.

 Personally, I am not good at social skills, so I’m not talking very much.

During the autumn holiday, I traveled lots of counties in Europe, such as Sweden, Denmark and Tallinn, but I find out that I would like to stay at home^^    

Finland is totally different to China,I like its quilt . And what really impressed me is that all drivers follow the traffic rules strictly, that is fantastic!!

MY INTRODUCTION 

My name is Hoang Luong Manh Cuong and I am 18 years old. I am from Vietnam which is the beautiful country in Asia. My hometown is a sea city in the South Vietnam and the name of my hometown is Vung Tau city. We have a lot of natural resources from the ocean, especially petroleum and gas. Vung Tau City is also famous about tourism because we have a beautiful seaside around the city.  

I live in Vung Tau city when I was born. There are four people in my family and we live in a big house together. We have 9 rooms in my house so I think this is the best palace for me when I want to take a rest. At weekend, I often spend many times playing basketball and watching movies with my friends. Moreover, I like cooking some Vietnamese food and making some coffee when I have free time. I have a small dream that is I want to be a Barista. 

In my hometown, I have studied in a famous school which is for the gifted students - Le Quy Don High School. In my opinion, it is so far from my home, about 7 kilometers. In contrast, I think Le Quy Don High School is the best choice for studying high school in Vung Tau City such as good environment, new furniture, useful systems and experienced teachers.  

Now, I did finish my high school course so I chose Centria University of Applied Sciences in Finland to study higher. I have spent many times on researching about studying in Finland so I think Finland is the good environment for me to develop my future career. Finnish people are so friendly and Finland is a peaceful country. There are many differences between Finland and Vietnam especially food, culture. I made friends with some people in my university and I was so impressed by my tutor. His name is Karim and he is from Bangladesh. He helped me a lot when I started living in Finland. Following that, my new life in Finland is not quite hard because there are many Vietnamese in Kokkola city.

When I made decision to become IT engineer, I thought computer is important in human life and I like creating some useful software to help my country. I want to change my country a lots because Vietnam is a small country and I think the Vietnamese young generation have to make some victory things in order to confirm the development of Vietnam with every countries.

Finally, I have a big dream in my future career. After university, I want to create a influential software and open coffee shop in my hometown. I am trying to make that become true.

Hello everyone, nice to meet you!

My name is Nguyen Trong Nhan and I come from Viet Nam, studying Information Technology in Centria.

The main reason why I choose Finnish Society and Culture is to have deep insight into exotic culture and the ways Finnish people think. I have many hobbies such as singing, cleaning and chatting with other people. 

I always try to improve my ability to use Finnish and English as a second language because it plays a vital role in my lifes here. When I come here I faced culture shock but now it is better thanks to help from my friends in Kokkola. 

Everyone can make friend with me via Facebook: Nguyen Trong Nhan

Nhi Ngo

Hi, my name is Nhi. I live in Da Nang City- the fifth largest city in Vietnam. It  is one of the major port cities in my country and it has a lot of cool bridges. For example: Han Bridge, Dragon Bridge...In the middle of the night, traffic is stopped from crossing the Han Bridge and it swings on its axis to allow shipping traffic to pass along the river.  Dragon Bridge was designed and built in the shape of a dragon and to breathe fire and water each Saturday and Sunday night at 9PM. 


I'm really interested in this course because I could understand more about culture as well as Finnish people.

In my free time, I love listening to music, especially pop music. I usually listen to US-UK music and Kpop music. My favorite bands are INFINITE, Maroon 5, Imagine Dragons... I really like watching series films, TV... and my favorite series is "How I met your mother".  

I found some friends in Kokkola and they are very friendly and I hope I can make more friends.
