๐๐Did you know that Tampere is officially recognized as the "Sauna Capital of the World"? Have you heard of the cute fictional characters "Moomins"? And did you know that Lenin and Stalin met here - in Tampere. This trip will show another side of Finland - a fascinating country that you will want to completely experience during a wonderful summer remote / coworking trip. ๐๐ **************************************************************************************** Hi fellow travellers๐ ! My name is Maria and I have planned and successfully guided multiple trips on JoinMyTrip in the past 1.5 years. This will be my first co-working trip of this kind, so I am really excited to invite you to beautiful Finland. You can learn more about me and my previous trips on my JMT page: https://www.joinmytrip.com/en/t/tripleader/mariaschoenfeld ๐ซ.
๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ & ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐? ๐ต Although this is an amazing opportunity to simply experience Finnish life and lifestyle and spend a working week in Finland, it is also partly a guided trip. During the free weekend days and after work we explore the vibrant city and it`s most stunning and famous spots by bike, on feet and using public transport. Tampere is the largest inland city in the Nordic countries and is often referred to as the "Manchester of the North" due to its industrial heritage. Several museums are dedicated to this part of history, and many others offer free entry to explore all other aspects. On our first evening, we will dine at the highest possible point at an altitude of 124 meters overlooking Tampere. And Monday to Friday and as working hours allow, we will use the free evenings for networking and sightseeing.
๐๏ธ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ You stay in a spacious apartment featuring a terrace, a bathroom and kitchen as well as fast internet connection. Like most terraces in Finland, the terrace is glazed and can be used for calls or as an extra working space. The apartment will be shared among three trip mates. Two trip mates will be sharing a room (with separate beds). And one lucky mate will be drawn to have their private room! I live in Tampere: that said, I will stay at my own home overnight and also in order to leave more space in the apartment for the group. But I will be coming over for breakfasts every day and spend the days working and sightseeing together ๐ฅฐ. โ ๐๐ฎ๐ฆ๐๐๐ซ ๐จ๐ ๐ญ๐ซ๐ข๐ฉ ๐ฆ๐๐ญ๐๐ฌ: 3 (๐๐ซ๐ข๐ฉ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐๐จ๐ง๐๐ข๐ซ๐ฆ๐๐ ๐จ๐ง๐๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ง๐ฎ๐ฆ๐๐๐ซ ๐จ๐ ๐ญ๐ซ๐ข๐ฉ๐ฆ๐๐ญ๐๐ฌ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ซ๐๐๐๐ก๐๐) โ ๐๐จ๐ง-๐ฌ๐ฆ๐จ๐ค๐๐ซ๐ฌ ๐จ๐ง๐ฅ๐ฒ Because spots are limited, it's quick and easy to reserve your spot: ๐๐ฅ๐ข๐๐ค ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ ๐ซ๐๐๐ง ๐๐ฎ๐ญ๐ญ๐จ๐ง ๐จ๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ซ๐ข๐ ๐ก๐ญ ๐ฉ What are you waiting for?!

Helsinki Airport
Day 1
๐ฟ๐๐ฎ 1: ๐ผ๐ง๐ง๐๐ซ๐๐ก & ๐๐๐๐ฉ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐๐ง๐ค๐ช๐ฅ Welcome to Finland! There are two ways to reach Tampere, either flying into Helsinki Airport (HEL) and taking a train to Tampere (about 2 hours drive) or fly directly into Tampere Airport (TMP). I will be happy to help you to find the right train for you from Helsinki Airport :). If you arrive early, feel free to explore Helsinki before coming to Tampere. Once in Tampere, we meet at our apartment or directly at the train station and settle in for your coworking experience (check-in at 3pm). Our official trip beginning and meet up with the group will be at 3 pm and after a short break and maybe rest and take the public transport to Tampere`s undoubtedly most exclusive location to the restaurant in the Tower Observation Deck. They offer traditional Finnish food (vegetarian as well), offering an upscale dining experience with breathtaking views from its tower location. ๐๐๐พ๐๐๐ฟ๐๐ฟ โ 6 nights in an apartment - shared twin bed room with another trip mate โ Lucky draw for one trip mate to stay in their own private bed room ๐ โ Dining in the restaurant in Tampere Nรคsinneula observation tower (1 main dish + 1 started OR 1 dessert included; drinks excluded) ๐๐๐พ๐๐๐ฟ๐๐ฟ โ Airport transfer (Helsinki - Tampere ~ 20-30โฌ)

On one of the evenings I will arrange a typical Finnish sauna for us with the opportunity to dip into the nearby lake and enjoy the serene nature of Finland. Furthermore, all evenings will have some sort of programme and no one will get bored (of course you are free to join or just to relax after work): city walks, museum visits, shopping tours, hiking and more.
