My term in Slovakia was just amazing! I met tons of people from all the corners of Europe, discovered new cultures and spent a great time with them. The best part: traveling! We've been to Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic, Austria and of course traveled through Slovakia. So, in one word: unforgettable!

It is hard to write just few sentences about my Erasmus, but I will try. I'm going to show you a few conversations between my Erasmus friends after we all came back to our lifes.

H: I have been reminiscing one memory from Kosice in every single day. Probably it was the best part of my life ! I wanna go back January 2013 !!

M: I'm afraid that it had been the best part of my life, because when it was I dont have nothing to waiting for. My head is full of memories and my heart is still full of emotions from that period - it is hard to replace it.

H: When I think like this I remember another thing, I know we have such a beautiful relations between all of us and it means we will meet again!!! I don't know when and where but for sure we will find one way!!!

Erasmus means a lot for each one of our Erasmus family. Because we were family. I wish everyone such a good friends and memories like I have. I left piece of my heart in Jedlikova 13. Best wishes for everybody who had lived with me there, see u soon guys. Best wishes for ESN Kosice cause without your help we wouldn't survive. :*

Erasmus for me is all about meeting people, discovering new cultures and most of all opening minds. Here in Kosice I met exceptional people and I was amazed by the difference of cultures even we're all part of Europe. Finally, the courses I wanted to do in TUKE, I'm doing most of them and it was interesting to see how things work in another environment of study. Most of all, I liked learning in English, and learning technical subjects in a language that is not your mother language maybe difficult, but it shows you how, and prepares you to work in a different country from your home country. I'm totally satisfied with my Erasmus, not had big problemns yet. So my advice to people who hesitate about doing Erasmus, it's that you should jump and it will make you discover many things, and also yourself.

Erasmus was great, but we had problems with mentor and with accomodation, because people didn´t give our Learninig agreement in office. I was with two friends of mine. Great was, that we didn´t have problem with language (speaking in polish). But i don´ t understand till now, how is possible that they didn´t give our Learning agreement, when i sent this application on e-mail, which they have on their website. But Erasmus was great, teachers were amazing, mentor in school was great and life as Erasmus student was excelent. No worries, only fun.

I spent the most enjoyable days of my life when I was Erasmus student. My Erasmus country was so small but it has many amazing cities,amazing mountains, it is very close to my dream cities (Prague,Vienna,Budapest for example). If I could have luck to be an Erasmus student again, I could try every way to make it longer and longer and longer :)

Erasmus in Kosice was the best time in my life. I met many interesting people, full of passions. Not only other Erasmums students, but many Slovaks, who are great friends and you can always count on them. We are still in touch. If i had to decide one more time, i would make the same decision!

Erasmus organisers could do with a big improvement because things they organised are outdated and dont always appeal (possibly to do with the culture) but partying with people from all over the world and travelling with them is the best part about it. hands down. the FREEEDDDDDOOOOOOOMMMMM! scotland 2013 #yolo

Well, this was really one of the best experience of my life. It definitely made me grow, and I enjoyed the time I spend there. And I really feel like travelling more, but I also want to take the time to visit all the great people I met all around the world! I'd also like to thank all ESN people, they really contributed a lot to why I enjoyed my stay so much. Erasmus definitely wouldn't be the same without them!

It was so great to be here, I will feel both sad and happy for living that. It will be difficult to live alone, stop travelling every week, study at school also ! I definitely recommend Kosice for an erasmus semester !

I had my ERASMUS+ experience in the spring term, 2017. It was actually the last semester of
my bachelor studies. For me Erasmus is the best thing that every student should experience
at least once. Getting to know Slovakia and the other European counties, studying by
Slovakian terms and system, meeting new people from all around the world, making new
friends and creating lifetime memories are just some of manyyyy things that you get chance
to do on Erasmus.

Eduardo Perales Palomares (24 years, Universidad Politecnica de Madrid, Spain), WT 2016

First of all I want to say that Erasmus in Košice was the best experience in my life so far.
Traveling across the Europe and visiting all places I had dreamed about before. I also visited
Kyiv which was really cool. Meeting new cultures, people and living with them makes you grow
and look beyond. I also remember all that dancing and crazy nights with them. In particular I will
remember all the people from Dormitory Jedlíkova 13 that made me feel like at home. I met
special family there with whom I shared and lived new lifestyle. And ESN there was amazing,
too. NAZDRAVIE!!!

An experience that has completely changed my life. I shared a year of my life with amazing
people that now I can define as true friends or more, as a second family because Kosice will
always be a city where I feel like at home.
