In my opinion, studying abroad is most of all getting to know yourself and other people from different backgrounds. In Diemen that is very much possible and I recommend it to everyone who is interested in learning about different cultures.

Living at the Kiezel(the dormatory on campus) was one of the best times I have ever had in college. Since no one really knew eachother everyone went out of there way to introduce themselves. It turns out to be your own little community.

I studied in the Netherlands where most of the people speak english fluently. I didn´t find it necessary to start studying dutch as local seemed to be communicate in english almost as well as in their own native language. Anyway I learned some basics of dutch and in the future when I´m going back to study to the Netherlands I will be more willing to learn dutch also.

Type of housing: Apartment/House

If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
I would choose to live in an apartment that I find myself because the dorm was not very safe or clean place to live.

When there are many different nationalities and most of the people have never lived away from their parents before this experience it is understandable that there are problems but the security of the accomodation could be better.
