“For me the greatest challenge has been meeting other students who do not stick to their own nationalities.”

Why ELTE?

I did my first exchange in South Korea in 2014 in which I met a few Hungarian guys who became my very close friends. After returning home for a few months, I wanted to go explore something new, so I decided Budapest would be the best place to start my next adventure.

What did you like most about being a student at ELTE?

My favorite thing about being a student at ELTE is that I really enjoy hearing the different perspectives from people from all over the world.

What were the challenges in your study program?

For me the greatest challenge has been meeting other students who do not stick to their own nationalities.

How do you think your degree will help you in your life and career?

Pursing my degree has allowed me to meet individuals from all over the world and has helped me create an extensive international network.

Do you have any advice for future students at ELTE?

My advice to future students at ELTE is to get involved early and to not be shy. Enjoy every second, because before you know it, it will be time to head home.
