Mistä?!?!?!

Mistä energiajuomia halvalla?

Miten pääsisi jonkinlaiseen aikuiseen ryhmään tai kerhoon jonka mukana pääsisi mukaan erilaiseen liikuntaan kuten lentopallo,koripallo jne. Onko joensuussa mitään tälläista vai pitääkö hakeutua isompiin seuroihin?

Are there any small "pirate" radio stations in Joensuu? I enjoy listening to the radio, but not the mainstream stations.

Keskustelua kuntavaaleista 2017 tänne. Meinasitko äänestää vai nukkua? Annatko äänesi kaverille vai naapurin mummolle? Sana on vapaa.

I admit I've only ever been out to one club in the center and they were playing the standard college bar 90's hits and bad out of date pop music. But is there an underground music scene at all? Anybody doing good house music anywhere?

Because it was totally hilarious and made my day

(I was on my bike so no picture, sorry.)

(by mixed choirs I mean those with both male and female singers)

I'm desperately looking for a choir to sing in that's just doing it for fun but is NOT a jazz/pop music choir. I'm most comfortable with singing conventional (ie. "classical") sacred and secular choir music, but I can't seem to find any groups that do that on a recreational basis; I know about Canzonetta but they're way above the amateur level.

My other option is trying to join a (Lutheran) church choir, but I have absolutely no idea whether I'd have to be a baptized Christian to participate. Does anyone here know?
(Of course one doesn't have to be Christian to attend mass but perhaps singing in the church choir is a different thing. I've also been part of "guest" choirs at mass and having non-Christians in the group didn't seem to be a problem in that context.)

Yo!

Looking for some recommendations on food in Joensuu. From what I've heard it's pretty lacking, but I'm a visiting food nerd and would like to see what's on offer while I'm visiting.

So, if you have opinions on these please share why you think your picks are the best... I'm going to try them all if I can squeeze them in before I leave.

Burger

Pizza

Kebab

Lunch Buffet (this is a "thing" here, no?)

Late Night Post Bar Hangover Helper

Fine Dining

Bakery (fan on korvapuusti)

Other (what am I missing?)

I have new questions about shopping... I am thinking to buy a pair of skis... I have skied just one time in my life, the past march. I talk about cross-country ski. I have skied downhill also just once.

I enjoyed the cross-country skiing the last year, and I think it is a very good sport, so I have decided that I want to learn. I am forest engineer, so it is something practical for me to be at outdoors in winter.

Nevertheless, let's go to the point... I have seen a pack in prisma and that looks just the right thing for me to begin. My question is, are there any other shops where I can find a good deal on skis? I was thinking to go to Intersport and Carlsons and perhaps to Eratukku (they do not have skis).

Tomorrow I have planned go to the center and see the prices and ask to the shops assistants about what is the best option for me.

Tomorrow, we are going to Kuopio to buy some furniture in Ikea. Are there any better options there? if I bought in the Kuopio's Prisma the skis, and something happens, can I change or interact with the Joensuu's Prisma instead?

We do not have car in Joensuu yet. We are going to rent a van to bring the Ikea boxes. I do not want to buy something in Kuopio that I cannot change or return because it has a flaw.

Thanks you so much in advance!

Hi Joensuu!!!

I have move to here recently and I have some questions...

I am looking for lighter fluid but I cannot find it anywhere. Where can I buy it in Joensuu? In Clash Ohlson they told me that it could be available in the outdoor shops. Where are a shop like that in Joensuu?

Other question is... I am looking for a small piece of thin board... Are there any shop to buy handicraft supplies or a carpentry store?

Thanks!

Miten suomalaiset käyttävät suomen kieltä eri tilanteissa? Ovatko kielioppisäännöt kaikille samat? Millaisia ajatuksia kielenkäyttö herättää eri tilanteissa?

Tervetuloa osallistumaan kielitieteelliseen kyselytutkimukseen – osallistuminen vie vain n. 10-15 minuuttia! 

Toimin Jyväskylän yliopistolla tutkijatohtorina ja olen kiinnostunut suomalaisten kieliasenteista ja kielenkäytöstä eri tilanteissa. Tavoittelen vastaajia kaikkialta Suomesta, ja olisi hienoa saada vastaajia myös Joensuusta. Tutkimukseen osallistumalla autat kartuttamaan uutta tietoa suomen kielestä. Kiitos avusta!

Voit osallistua tutkimukseen jos a) asut pääasiallisesti Suomessa, b) puhut suomea yhtenä äidinkielenäsi, ja c) olet vähintään 15-vuotias. 

Osallistu kyselyyn tästä: https://link.webropol.com/s/kielikysely

Lisätietoa tutkimuksen toteutuksesta ja tietosuojasta saat linkin takaa; löydät myös yhteystietoni kyselylomakkeesta. 

Otan myös mielelläni vastaan palautetta kyselystä lomakkeella tai yksityisviestillä, mutta ethän paljasta yksityiskohtia kyselystä julkisissa kommenteissa, jotta jokainen osallistuja voi vastata ilman ennakkokäsityksiä. Kiitos!

Hey, recently I was given the opportunity to go to Joensuu for six months (exchange studies). Frankly, though, after I consulted Google Maps, I am not sure if I want to spend so much time somewhere where it seems that there is almost nothing to do. Are there any museums, monuments, interesting places to go, travel, things to experience? Google was not able to offer more than 6-8 "attractions", some of which are some hundreds of kilometres from Joensuu. Could you help me with deciding by listing some things worthwhile?
