Day 7 – 20/04/26

Ignacio:
After going to classes, we had lunch and spent some time resting and doing schoolwork. In the afternoon, since my partner was still in Lapland, my exchange student and I went to the gym for a while, where we trained together. Coming back from gym we went to a supermarket and we bought a croissant dought in a can. Later, we had dinner and prepared the croissants all together.

Enrique:
We woke up late after resting from the previous day and walked to a public grill in a small cabin. Before eating, we visited some local museums that showed how people lived in the past, including how they transported wood and information about typical Finnish traditions like animals, skiing, and fishing. After that, we went to the grill and lit a fire to cook traditional Finnish sausages. Going to public grills is very common in Finland, especially in winter, when people meet in groups even though it can be difficult to light the fire because of the cold. Later, we returned home, packed our things, and got ready to leave. At 6:20 p.m., we took a bus to the train station, and around 7:40 p.m. we got on the train back to Tampere, a journey of about 11 hours. During the journey, the train stopped around 50 minutes in Oulu, a famous city in Finland, so we went to visit une of the main monuments there, a statue of a policeman.
