From the UK to Austria to Finland: a relocation story
Relocation is always easier when you can learn from someone else’s experience.
Hearing real stories helps you understand what to expect, what really matters, and what’s often left out of official guides.
That’s why we invited Anna Zasedateleva, for whom the move to Finland became her third international relocation. Anna moved to the UK at the end of 2018, relocated to Austria in 2021, and most recently moved to Finland on January 30, 2025, together with her family.
During the session, we’ll talk about what relocation looks like when it’s not your first move, how expectations change along the way, and what’s truly important to be prepared for.
