Moominworld

This place is the Disneyland of Finland created after a children cartoon show. Moomin is really big in Finland toys, t-shirts and bags with moomin is available everywhere. Unfortunately Moominworld is closed at the moment due to corona but we still went there to watch the sunrise as it is close to the ocean. Moominworld is located in Oldtown Naantali or close to it. Usually there are theater acts, snacks and the characters walking around. Eventhough the pictures of Moominworld underneath seem a bit sad I think it’s definitely worth coming back in the summer one day and experiencing it. But the sunrise was luckily very very beautiful.

The education system at Turku University of Applied Sciences

Kart in Club TURKU

Further activity that can be done at the moment is going Go-Kart driving. We were around 8 people and it was a lot of fun. We payed 20€ each. The place provides you overalls and helmets. There is a given route outside where we drove along. A lot of us spun in the track curve or crashed into each other. One of our friends got hit while spinning and ended up in the grass. The race was about 10-15 minutes in my opinion pretty short for the price but as the route is not too big it would have been boring otherwise. At the end they gave us our results as they tracked everyones time.
