What does Turku mean to you?

"A cramped, international city, with people who are sulky and snappy."

- Tansu

"I often point out that I'm not from Turku, but I like to represent the city and its people. I have to admit that I get some satisfaction from the reactions."

- I'm not from Turku

"There’s some kind of magic in Turku, especially in the spring nights along the river banks. When I’m lost and sad, I feel like Turku picks me up and holds me close."
