芬兰年轻人到养老院陪聊可抵房租

Those who apply don't need any specific care experience. "There are staff to look after the elderly," project manager Miki Mielonen tells Yle. "We are looking for young people who maybe have a different perspective on everyday life, who will bring variety and recreation to the elderly residents."

想要申请的租客无需具备护理经验。项目经理米奇·米洛浓在接受“Yle”采访时称：“养老院有专门照顾老人的员工。我们要找的年轻人是看待生活有独特角度的人，他们能给老人带来多样化的休闲生活。

More than 60 people have applied for the spaces in less than a week, and the idea has also been warmly welcomed by Finns on social media. "Great project, hopefully it will spread to other areas," writes one person on Facebook, while another applauds the scheme for bringing different generations together.

项目仅在一周内就收到了60余人的申请。当地群众也在社交媒体上大加赞赏这个创意。有人在脸书上写道：“这个项目太赞了，真希望能向其它地方推广。”还有支持此项目的人表示，它能拉近年轻人和老年人的距离。

But some wish it was open to more people, with one user saying: "It's a shame the flats are so small. It would have been nice if the elderly had a small family with children or a single parent as their neighbour." And one person is disappointed about the cut-off age, writing: "Shame I'm too old for this - I would have definitely applied."
