introduce myself with Japanese culture

Naming culture in Japan Hello, everyone! I am Yoshika as an exchange student here at LMU. This is quite sudden, but I’ll show you the word “芳果” and ask you two questions: Can you pronounce this Chinese character(kanji) correctly?, and Do you know the exact meaning? Probably most of you have no ideas because you Read More

A Great Year Ahead of Us

A couple of years ago I didn’t even know what Erasmus was. Now, I know it is going to make this one of the best years of my life. Starting From the Beginning I was born and raised in Barquisimeto, Venezuela. A very small town where everybody knows each other. My family and friends completely Read More

Introducing me

Starting with the basics, my name is Claudia. I never liked my name and I’m not really sure why, but even though I’ve tried to intoduce myself as Clau only my closest friends call me that, so I guess in a way I’ve made my peace with it. I live in Almería, which is in Read More

Are you from Amsterdam?

Oh, from the Netherlands? Are you from Amsterdam? Do you know the coffee shops? These are the questions I received a couple of times after introducing myself. I am from the Netherlands, yes. I am not from Amsterdam because I am from Utrecht. And yes, I know the coffee shops even though I don’t use Read More

Goodbye Munich

It’s on a rainy day that I have to say goodbye to Munich… I’m a bit sad actually. I look forward to returning to France and meeting my friends and family whom I haven’t seen for over three months. But at the same time, I would have stayed a bit longer here. My stay here Read More

Already Out of Goodbyes

I really don’t know how I want to start this post, let alone what I’m going to say. I already said it in February, and I will say it again now… I’m not very good at goodbyes. In fact, I hate them, especially when I know they are not “see you later’s”, but real goodbyes. Read More

An ordinary day in the life of a… Wait, there’s no such thing as an ordinary day!

Since I was little, my dream had always been becoming a fashion designer. Or a hairdresser. Or a princess (yeah, I know, quite stereotypical… isn’t it?). That unexpectedly (and thankfully) changed when I turned 15: I decided that I wanted to pursue a career in medicine. Talk about change… My decision was, however, far from Read More
