Met the Fulbright Center (FC) team and learned about both the project expectations and the available supports to have a productive, positive experience. I had forgotten about the extensive, collaborative Fulbright history that Finland and the U.S. have had -- 60 years and going strong. I was also reminded of the fact that 75-80% of the funding to support the American or Finnish Fulbrighters comes from Finland.
We were also welcomed to Finland and our Fulbright experience by the public affairs specialist for the U.S. Embassy. Thank you so much! There we were able to meet 6 Fulbrighters from various programs most of whom are in the greater Helsinki area.
NOW to get to work preparing our home for my family's arrival...
