‘I will be doing my Master’s in Forest and Nature Conservation here at Wageningen University. I’ve been around a week now and I really love the campus because it is so green and well maintained. I brought my bike along from Germany and I’ve been around most of the town already. It’s small but quite beautiful.

I am extremely impressed with how well organised the Winter AID is. Back at the universitywhere I did my Bachelor’s, the introduction programme usually lasted only for a day or at the most two. This university’s introduction programme is at a different level all together! All the activities are so inclusive and so much fun. I have the best group and mentor. Quite literally, because we won Winter AID 2017! Oh, and have you met our mascot yet?

About my expectations, I am hoping for a comprehensive and well-structured study programme. I already know that people from several different countries study and work heretogether. I’m really looking forward to meeting people from different parts of the world and am hoping that I have the chance to showcase my work on an international platform.’
