Today we are sharing the last post in our 🌏💫 Erasmus+ and Beyond: How VSE Students Explore the World series. Here comes #5!👇
🎓 Marek Kosina (FBA, University of Victoria - CA)
💬 Since this was my second Erasmus, I had some expectations, but they were ultimately exceeded. 🤓 Spending half a year in Canada 🇨🇦 and the USA 🇺🇸 was truly fantastic. Waking up in national parks, seeing untamed nature, or encountering seals and deer up close became completely normal, and one quickly adapts to a different lifestyle.
💬 The school itself had a huge campus, where you could find everything from a doctor and sports facilities to its own cinema, making it comparable to a small town. 🏙️ The courses were much more practically oriented and built on completely different foundations than ours. Some were easy to manage, while others required a bit more effort. 📚
💬 Canadians are extremely friendly, so you don’t have to worry about not striking up a conversation or making friends during your entire Erasmus. 🫂 The sooner you integrate, the better, because there are many things to experience. Whale watching, spring skiing with a view of Vancouver, football and hockey games, or traveling across the entire west coast are just a few of the things you can accomplish in a few months. 🫶
💬 The entire Erasmus was an incredible adventure for me, making it hard to return to Prague. If you have any questions or want tips on trips and life in Canada, I would be happy to answer them. PS: Although traveling to another continent may seem daunting at first, definitely go for it, because the experiences gained are worth it and often outweigh some of the negative aspects. ➡️🌎
