THE MOST ATTRACTIVE PLACE TO LIVE IN
FINLAND
“Tampere is dominated by its
universities and institutes. It has
the feel of a ‘college’ town, full
of youthful zest, where almost
anything goes, and anything is
possible. That’s why I feel so at
home here. And did so virtually
from the moment I arrived”
“Another obvious plus is the fact
that English is just about
everyone’s second language.”
Prof. Howy Jacobs – Scotsman and punk rock fan Professor of Molecular Biology at the University of Tampere since 1996.
