News from the international teachers

I know the Fulbrighters from India, Finland, South Africa, Singapore, Mexico and Argentina have been busy. Here is an article about a visit they made to a Maryland high school. I'm curious about what else they have been up to since arriving in August.

It's Tampere!

I just got my placement: Tampere! Here are some facts about Tampere:

1. It is the most populous inland city of any Nordic country (211,000).
2. It hosted the 2010 world ringette competition.
3. It is nicknamed the Manchester of Finland.
4. Its sister city is Syracuse, NY.
5. There is already snow on the ground there.
