Greetings from Castellón de la Plana, Spain 🇪🇸
-
“Hi, I’m Chiara, a third-year student in the Bachelor in Industrial and Mechanical Engineering. I’ve just returned from five wonderful months at Universidad Jaume I (UJI) in Castellón de la Plana, Spain.
It was an amazing experience, both academically and personally. I had the chance to learn a new language and fully immerse myself in Spanish culture. I made lots of new friends, both local and international, and had the opportunity to travel a lot.
At first, I found the classes a bit challenging because there were many assignments and deadlines, which is different from what I was used in Italy, but I was able to adapt well to this new method. I also found that the relationship with the professors was very informal; they were usually very supportive and happy to help international students.
I lived in a shared flat with three amazing roommates, who helped me a lot with learning the language.
I would choose to do my Erasmus + at UJI a thousand times over. It was definitely one of the best times of my life!”
