Few notes about Finland conference in Evtek

Monday, June 18th, 2007

After staying for 3 years in , studying in one of the main institutes of the island, the trip was something i definitely needed. Just to relax from the island, and the environment.

After, almost, half a day flight (since we went to Helsinki through Prague), we got in , and stayed for 15 days in Leppavaara, where university was placed.

6 universities brought their groups, and after the first day, there appeared 5 international teams with representatives of each country.

Lectures were mainly about ICT Security issues, and network aspects of data protection, which was completely new for me, so I found quite tough, but challenging enough to start collaborating with team members and learn quickly a lot of new stuff. Some of guys didn’t really want to do anything, because they found or hard, or boring. But those two weeks of intensive courses were worth , IMHO!

Finnish were really friendly. There were no problems in communication aspects, since I didn’t find anyone speaking only Finnish. Everybody speaks English, with slight accent, but was really comprehensible if you compare with Cypriot English, or Greek English and some other countries.

Hopefully to be continued…
