Student's name: Paul Dupont Erasmus trip: Lyon-Aberdeen Time: in 2007 | Cool! What an amazing time that was! We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun! To me, Erasmus means discovering a completely new lifestyle You live together with new friends in a different country. Sorry, the heating system in our apartment was horrible and the food was strange, but hey... anyhow. It's amazing! | |
| Student's name: Beatrice Giletti Erasmus trp: Verona-Du blin Time: in 2008 | I went to Dublin, in Ireland. It was a great discovery, which opened up the world to me and I made many friends from different countries and cultures. The experience changed my life. I felt richer, smarter and happier after my time on Erasmus. My English became almost fluent and I knew so much about the world and about the people who live in it... Internationality has become part of my life, and I could not imagine living or working in a non-multicultural or non-multinational environment. |
Student's name: Wilmie Boot Erasmus trip: Rotterdam—Naples Time: in 2009 | When I first arrived, the first of the city of Naples struck me and I loved it from the first second! The language is a beautiful mixture of Italian, Greek, Latin, Spanish and the influences of the villages surrounding Naples. I have wonderful memories of my year in the Universita Federico Ⅱ in Naples and the time spent in our dormitory, where I was the only foreigner among the Italian students. If I were to do it all over again, I wouldn't change a thing! | |
