ESN Lappeenranta trip to Lofoten

ESN Lappeenranta trip to Lofoten

Our fantastic trip has ended. We had an amazing time with our friends! These moments will live in our hearts, and we will never forget them: multiple hikes, great hills and mountains, endless fjörds, and infinite horizons.

Hours on the bus were paid back by something you might never see again. The weather was beautiful, and we were awarded for our patience.

Don’t miss our next trips, organized by our partner Timetravels. Remember that everyone can join our trips regardless of their status and membership. Every student of LUT and LAB is welcome to join our journeys!

Take a look at our picture gallery and prepare for your next trip! We travel to Lofoten and Lapland every semester. See you next time!

The name change

We are happy to announce that Erasmus Student Network Lappeenranta ry will be renamed with the 31.03.2024 decision of the board meeting.

The new name is Lappeenrannan paras kilta ry. The branding “ESN Lappeenranta” will remain, as we are too lazy to change the graphic design during our Finnish Longest Wappu.

Stay tuned.

UPD: Check the date of that post. Thank you! Everyone who was overreacting, you are welcome!

Wappu 2024 scheldule

Wappu’s schedule is here! Feel free to go through the long list of events and see which ones you’ll like. Remember that opening and closing is pretty important.

Also, ESN Lappeenranta events during this year’s Wappu are Välikuolemasaunis which roughly means “halfway through and feeling like death saunis”, so halfway through Wappu on the 16.4 when you’re burnt out from all the events we’re having a chill sauna and cooking some food at the ESN sauna.

Also on the 27.4, we’re having a Skinnarila Cookout, in which Art is cooking some nice meats and veggies near LAB for everyone to enjoy before Finnhits later that day.

So yeah, come check out the events and if you get the Wappu pass card you can get a stamp from each event and get a special patch at the end 😎
