Anyone here know if it still is possible to find muschrooms or is the season over in september?

Any tips on areas are much appreciated!

Hi! We are staying in Kuopio for a couple of months and we want to try fishing in the lakes. We have never fished before in our life 😅

We tried with a simple rod without a reel. The fish were not impressed. Zero fish.

Now we want to try a rod with a reel. I know we need to buy the fishing licence for that. Which one is best for two months, the week one or the year one? And where is the easiest place to buy it?

Also, any tips for beginners? Good lakes or spots near the city? What lure should we use in autumn? Morning or evening?

Thank you! We hope to catch at least one fish before we go home 🐟

itse tykkään pelailla rytmipelejä kun pystyn

Sattuisiko tämä kaveri vielä työskentelemään samassa ammatissa?

Hi everyone

So I am 23M living in Kuopio for about 3 months now. As much as I love the quiet/peace here, but as I am an introvert so it hard to find friends here which sometimes is very depressing. So I started running sometimes to keep myself away from those thoughts.

To keep me consistent and fit as I have a desk job so sitting all day in front of computer , I’m looking for someone (or a small group) to run with, or kick a ball around / play casual badminton/tennis if you're into other stuff. Zero hardcore marathon pace expectations I'm down for a slow jog where we can actually breathe. Happy to chat the whole time or run in comfortable silence (introvert luxury, I know)😅

I live in centre so we can decide a common spot to meet and time based on each other’s availability. I am also open if multiple people wants to join and build a community!

Drop a dm if you are interested.

Laskimme jokaiselle postinumeroalueelle 0–100-pisteen siitä, kuinka paljon alue on muuttunut viidessä vuodessa: tulot, koulutustaso, nuoret aikuiset, rakentaminen ja omistusasuminen. Asuntojen hinnat eivät ole mukana.

Kuopion Pitkälahti saa pisteen 85 ja on neljäs koko maan 1 080 alueen joukossa. Nousu on ollut pitkä ja se on pysynyt: sija 654 vuonna 2015, sitten 316, 112, 340, 34, 6, 4, 4, 3 ja 4 vuonna 2024 — viisi vuotta putkeen kärkiviisikossa. Asukasluku kasvoi 2 995:stä 4 203:een, eli 40 prosenttia.

Kuopiosta on mukana 29 aluetta. Seuraavana Jynkänmäki 67 (sija 60) ja Puijonlaakso 58 (sija 193). Listan toisessa päässä Neulamäki 24 (sija 1 055).

Piste mittaa muutosta, ei sitä onko alue hyvä tai kallis asua.

Onko kellään tietoa mitä toimintaa Harjulan sairaalan Syrjälä rakennukselle on tulossa ja milloin

Hei,

Olen katsellut asuntoja Kuopiosta. Aittolammentiellä näyttää olleen kaksioita vuokralla jo monta kuukautta ja kokoajan tuntuu tulevan lisää. Kaikki muut asunnot menevät hetkessä, mikähän näissä voisi olla vialla? Onko ihan umpihomeessa vai mikä homma?

En ole paikkakuntalainen ja asuntonäyttöön tuleminen on työlästä. Osaako joku kertoa mikä näissä mättää?

Mikä on paras paikka ostaa asunto juuri nyt Kuopiossa? Ajattelin etsiä Keskustasta tai Saaristokaupungista.

I live here in Kuopio and have moved here from Sweden, so I dont know much Finnish yet unfortunately.
However I am interested in finding a group to play any type of RPG like D&D or anything else like that.
If any group is playing in English (or Swedish) or would be willing to do so if I join, then I would be more than happy to play with you.
I am a dad in the mid 40s, and while I dont think that age matters that much, I would prefer to play with grownups at least. ;)

I am interested in any tips I can get on how to find a group to join.

Olisi tulossa muutto Kuopioon ja sain kämpän Saarijärventieltä. Millainen alue se on, onko rauhallista?

Kuopiossa näyttää olevan todella kallis vuokrataso vaikka asunnot on vanhoja ja asuinalueet masentavia.

Jynkkä on kaunista aluetta mutta neuvostoliiton aikaiset copy/paste kuutiot pilaavat koko Kuopion. Tämmöisestä 60-luvun kämpästä maksat helposti yli 700e. Vaikka venytät budjettia yli 800e et silti pääse kuutioita karkuun.

Olen asunut maaseudulla ja kaupungeissa ympäri suomea mutta Kuopio otti kyllä voiton. Tuntuu, että koko kaupungista ei löydy viihtyisää aluetta😅

Anteeksi avautuminen. Olen vain epätoivoinen.

Aina kun subi tulee kotisivulla vastaan, videossa on joku 20-kiloinen nisti, joka joko huutaa vihaisesti ja kuvaa jotain (?) tai video, josta ei yksinkertaisesti saa mitään selvää. Nämä videot eivät liity Kuopioon mitenkään kuvauspaikkaa lukuun ottamatta.

Mitä kaikkia opiskelijaetuja kannattaa hyödyntää kuopiossa ja myös yleisesti?

Viimeksi olen opiskellut vuosia sitten joten kaikki vinkit tervetulleita! Etenkin rahaa säästävät vinkit kuten kotivakuutus tms.

Kuntosalitarjousta opiskelijoille?

I just want to thank everyone whop supported my books The Horror Archives and The Horror Archives: Volume Two1 The Rosebud Bookstore completely sold out of Volume Two and had only 1 remaining of Volume 1. BUT I just went by there today and restocked. So now there are 3 of each volume back in Stock for anyone who still may be interested in picking up a copy or two!

Again thank you everyone for the support. Especially the support for a non-Finnish book. It means a lot to me! And I hope everyone who has purchased the book has enjoyed the stories.

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a place to stay in Kuopio for the month of September and thought I'd ask here in case anyone can help.

I originally came to Kuopio for a 3-month internship and stayed in KUOPAS accommodation. My internship has now been extended by at least one more month, so I need somewhere to stay during September.

Unfortunately, because students are returning for the autumn semester, accommodation is very difficult to find. I've already tried KUOPAS (They rented out my place already and don't have any new openings), Vuokraovi, Niiralankulma, Tekma, and other rental listings, but I haven't had any luck so far. I've also requested to join the Vuokra-asunnot and Asunnot Kuopio Facebook groups, but I'm still waiting for my requests to be approved.

I'm hoping someone here might know of a spare room, studio, or apartment available just for September. Unfortunately, Airbnb is outside my budget.

A little about me:

• 25-year-old male
• Quiet, clean, and respectful
• Non-smoker
• No pets (but I'm happy to live with pets if you have any)

If you have a place available or know someone who does, I'd really appreciate it if you could send me a message.

Thank you!

Edit: I currently pay €280, but anything around this amount is fine by me

Hey everyone,

I moved to Kuopio this June for an internship, and while the experience has been exciting, I’ve found myself feeling pretty lonely. I don’t really know anyone here much, and most of my days have just been work and going home. Also in my workplace I am the youngest guy and so never able to fit into their conversations. I am 23M btw

I’d love to make some friends or just meet new people to hang out with whether it’s grabbing a coffee, going for a walk around the lakes, checking out local events, or even just chatting. I’m open to pretty much anything that gets me out of my little bubble!

If anyone’s up for meeting with new people lets connect!

Thanks in advance!
