Based on Tampere's cost of living, here's selected remote jobs that would cover your costs:
Bikes being stolen all the time, even during day time while you are at work! More and more young people who have problems with drugs and are taking part in the criminal world. If you don't like to drink, there's nothing to do. Horrible and depressing - the only thing is that it's pretty safe, depending on which part of the city you live in.

The city is promoting startups and improving environment toward internationalisation, so the future is bright and worthy. There is not much nightlife activities to do besides drinking and dancing, but in the summer you can do sport

The irony of seeing an exhibit on graffiti, yet no actual graffiti in the streets. And the causal racism especially if you’re brown.
