International affairs

International Week included a sauna party for our guests - one for the lecturers and another for the students. The guest students were invited to Tamko’s sauna on Wednesday evening.  The members of Tarina hosted the event, which was quite successful even though most of the attending people were Finnish, not international. Besides going to sauna, there was casual discussion ranging from different countries’ study options to cultural differences between our countries.

The hosts had also prepared some foods, so when people left the sauna at midnight there was no need for an extra snack.

For the upcoming International weeks it might be considerable to combine the international sauna events or invite also some of our Finnish students, who were eager to join already this time.

Smoke Sauna Evening

International Week participants @ Hangaslahti Smoke Sauna


Probably the most exciting things about TAF week – The traditional Smoke Sauna.
According to Finns, sauna connects and is the best place for networking. At the beginning some of our International Guest might not have been convinced whether to go to Smoke Sauna and to dip in the frozen lake afterwards or not, but almost all did and were entirely satisfied about their decision.
Read yourself a few comments about how they saw this very special experience…

"Sauna was dark, warm, relaxing etc. :) excellent place for networking. Thank’s for warm welcome to International Office staff and other parties." (Santa Mazika, Latvia)

"I wanted to eat my own tongue, it was smoked and tasty." (Doru Pop, Rumania)

"Really nice and completely hot (and completely cold afterwards) I came out as a salmon. Thank you sauna people and TAF people for organizing this." (Lenno Verhoog, The Netherlands)

"The smoke sauna was a wonderful experience. I wasn’t too sure about the dip in the lake, but it was extremely invigorating. Beautiful location and inspiring atmosphere."
(Kevin Pontuti, US)

"Hot Black cool and fantastic! A great experience. THNX"
(Maaike Hamelynck, The Netherlands)

"I'm so grad I did this one, with guidance from my new friends. I now need a Sauna at home in the UK and make time to use it!" (Paul Shakespeare, UK)

"On Wednesday the legendary smoke sauna. In fact, as Cai noted, the only reason why I am here.
You never want something else, the real good and hot feel in the cabin and afterwards into the lake, teh largest part still covered with ice. I guess the water had a temperature just above zero.
I always will come back on this international week :)" (Alber tvd Kooj, The Netherlands)

"One of the themes of this International Week is innovation + sauna is a perfect space outside of routine and mundane thinking for something new to emerge.
The smoke sauna, shoved across this international group enables a different level of collaboration + new connections to be cennented. It’s a very special space, gifted to us by our Finnish hosts. A unique experience which has a tasting legacy. The international teachers will want to return to shove the community again + return the gift throught move new ideas + ways of working well together. We should really keep this secret as its sort of our success formula!" (Sheila Robinson, UK)

"Great experience. After the traditional sauna, do not forget to wash your hair properly, otherwise you can wake up with a black pillow! :)" (Jānis Garančs, Latvia)


Thanks for your feedback and the fantastic time at Hangaslahti and please feel free to add some more comments! :)
