My digital life
My digital life is quite same like others. I use my telephone every day and my laptop. I am good at the basic things in laptop or telephone but if its come a little bit too complicated i can't usually do nothing since i don't know what to do. I normally use google drive because in my opinion i think that it is the simplest program what i have ever used.
Luckily nowadays most of the laptop or computer programs are quite simple to understand so i can always updated my laptop safely. I am very good at surfing net and finding information what i need. That is great since in school you have to usually find some kind of information internet and you need to do it quickly.
In my home i usually help my parents in their iPads or their phones because they literally don't understand a thing about programs what are in their phones or iPads. They actually hate the social media and all of that so they don't want to even learn how to use these machines.
So what i can say about my digital skills is that they aren't bad but after all i am still quite helpless in any digital things.

InnoDay
Option 2:
Going to Innoday was very lightning experience. Firstly before i went to the Innoday i had lots of prejudices about innovation and entrepreneurship. Since i didn't had any experiences about entrepreneurship i actually thought that in entrepreneurship, you will lose everything if you don't succeed. That is the mainly reason why i always thought that entrepreneurship would never be my future.
I still think that entrepreneurship isn't for me but i don't see it anymore so dark choice. I see it nowadays more like opportunities.
What i learned in Innoday is that the best innovative ideas comes usually from the people. A case in point is our normal life and the problems of our lives. Producers don't sometimes know what the people need or just don't know how to make our land better place to live and thats why they sometimes ask the ideas direct the people. That is one thing what i learned in Innoday.
In Innoday we were have to answer some questions. We were have to be very creative when we answered the questions. People who asked us the questions wanted us to create very innovative and creative answers. Thats why it was sometimes very hard make up answers for their questions.
Before the Innoday i thought that i am not an innovative person but know i think that i can be if i want to be. So it was after all quite fun be there in Innoday.

Hi everyone!
I have now been here in New Zealand about couple of moth. It has been very different to live here than Finland. However i have loved to live and be here though i was have to face some problems what i didn't actually expected. My moneys are started to end despite the fact that i didn't have used so much money after all. Since my family didn't want to send me more money i was have to start job hunting.
First i was afraid that how i am going to find job here but luckily luck was finally my side. My host mother suggest that i should apply a job for bank where she worked since she know that they took sometimes interns in their bank. I was so thrilled about that since i have been so stressed out about finding a job there. I send my application immediately there after she have told me that the bank took some interns there.
I have sometimes thought that i would like to work at the bank in the future. Some people might think that working a bank is boring but i don't think that way. I think that working in a bank is very important job. That´s another reason why i was so thrilled about this opportunity.
I know that my job first might be something like making coffee or copy papers but i don't actually mind about that. Everything can be maybe first hard but in the end i will thank for myself that i did it that then. Besides i will get quite good salary if i do get there so i will try my best.
Here is the link to the bank:

blog post 6
My dear host family
My name is Veera and i am from Finland. I am so grateful that i can spend my exchange year with you. Why i chose to come to New Zealand is that i have always dreamed to visit there. See the New Zealand nature and in addition the land itself. Therefore i decided to spend my exchange year in New Zealand.
And now i am going to tell you something about me and my family. :)
In my family there are me, my big sister Rosa, my mom, dad and two cats. Our cats names are Leidi and Pulla. My mom is a doctor and my father is a music teacher. My sister is twenty so she is studying to become a teacher. I have very good relationship with my sister and quite good relationship with my mother and father. My sister is the one who i can trust and who is always with me. Even then when i have had a fight or misunderstood with my parents. I care about very much my parents but sometimes they are just simply making me crazy.
So i have only one sister. And for that reason it is going to be a very huge change in my life when i am coming to New Zealand. I am going to have three brothers, two sisters and two dogs in my life and that is a huge change compered to my life in Finland. For this reason i am very exited to find out how my life is going to change in contrast to my old life.
What i like to do in my free time is playing the violin, listening to music and going jogging or doing something other exercise. I am going to take my violin with me when i am going on abroad so i can join there some kind of orchestra. I also checked that there are lots of different kind of sports for example rugby and paddling. I am really interested to try those sports.
Something about my language skills:
My language skills are actually quite good in spite of that sometimes i may have a problem speaking english if there are lots of words what i don't quite understand. And sometimes i may have a problem with grammar if i have to write some kind of assignments or something like that. Despite the fact that i sometimes may have a problem with english i am luckily capable of joining the school which is great. On the other hand when i start to speak english everyday i will become more certain of my english skills.
The future and what i am doing then means me much. I am very ambitious person and i like to plan things before i do anything. I am not quite sure yet what i want to do in the future and my life then but on the other hand when i figured that what i want to do nothing is going stop me for getting what i want. Thats why school means me much. I try my best and therefore i work hard in school since i know that this moment in my life can change many things on my future. Thats why i want to try and do my best in school works.
So here is some kind of information about me. I am really exited to meet you! See you then! -Veera

Finland´s education success
What according to the video are the different reasons that contribute to the education success in Finland?
- According to the video in Finland there are very good teaching in schools. Teachers have time to give students right kind of teaching. Like if some students need more help than others teachers can give them the help what they need. Also students trust their teachers and that is very important in school life. And there is no competition between different schools like in England. Instead all schools in Finland are very good and there isn't the thing like best and worst school.
