Épisode spécial en anglais, sur mon année d’Erasmus en République tchèque.


What was your first impression? Do you feel confident speaking English? How would you describe your time abroad?


When I arrived in Czechia, I was really nervous - as well as really eager - by this new country, new language, new scholar system, new everything basically. Now, I would not say that I am completely relaxed with the idea of speaking english and going abroad for whatever reason but I am more confident. Anyways, I wanted to give the floor to other international students who supported me during this year and who experienced - more or less - the same adventure as me.


I genuinely hope that this episode will give you strength and faith in yourself to go abroad - if you want to of course.


A huge thank you for all your testimonies. And see you soon (maybe), for another episode in English!
