Europe
A Nordic country close to nature, with Finnish and Swedish as official languages.
Finland, with its thousands of lakes, vast forests and Baltic coastline, is a Northern European country where life is closely connected to nature. Sauna culture, simple design and a respect for quiet are distinctive features of Finnish life. The official languages are Finnish and Swedish, and Finnish, which sits outside the Indo-European language family, offers learners a completely different language experience.
UpLife's options in Finland are Finnish language programmes in Helsinki. These are usually delivered in immersion formats based on one-to-one lessons and staying in your teacher's home. They suit students who are planning to study, work or live in Finland for a longer period and want to start Finnish on the spot with a personalised programme.
Helsinki can be reached from Türkiye by direct and connecting flights. Because Finland lies so far north, daylight hours differ markedly between summer and winter. Long, bright summer evenings draw city life outdoors, while dark winter hours are spent in saunas, cafés and indoor activities; arriving prepared for this rhythm makes settling in much easier.
A Nordic country close to nature, with Finnish and Swedish as official languages.
Finnish grammar and pronunciation are distinctive, and they become far clearer and easier to retain when learnt through one-to-one lessons and everyday life.
Short trips from Helsinki take you to national parks, lakeshores and islands, so you can spend your weekends in nature.
Helsinki's seaside setting, compact city centre and well-organised public transport make it easier to settle into a new country from your very first weeks.
Summers are mild with very long days; winters are cold and snowy with short daylight hours. Thanks to the sea, Helsinki's winters are a little milder than inland.
Getting around Helsinki is easy by tram, metro, bus and ferries to the islands. Sauna, time by lakes and the sea, and walks outdoors even in winter are a natural part of everyday Finnish life.
