Hello, all! As the title says, I'll be moving to Finland in a week. I'm an African coming for a bachelor's degree at TUNI. While I've had a lot of advice from TUNI student tutors and articles from different sites, any not-so-known or underrated one you have will be very much appreciated.

Thank you!

Thanks! I've actually been worried about the cold. The lowest temperature I've experienced here was still above 10°C. Freezing and below freezing temperatures... I shudder at the thought.

When it starts to get chilly, merino wool undergarments are your friend. When it gets really cold, dressing in layers is a necessity.
