“The world is out there to be explored, and it would be a pity if my ultimate goal is
just to land a job. Although it might sounds like a common comment coming from an
exchange student, learning different cultures and lifestyle in Europe really taught me a
thing about thinking globally and how to respect people regardless of their ethnicity,
religion, or even the social norms that they follow. Thanks to this program, I met new
friends from countries I never imagined to be friends with. The passion, dreams, their
personalities, and their way of thinking led me to something even greater, that was
finding truth about myself. What will I do in the future? What kind of person I am?
What contributions shall I make for my country and my fellow countrymen? Do I even
matter? Those questions were mostly answered while I walked side by side with my
friends on the snowy land of Europe. For all the things this program has taught me, to
say I’m grateful is an understatement. The feelings, the knowledge, and the genuine
camaraderie I was lucky enough to experience there will be treasured for a long time.
Thereof, for last but not the least, I would like to thank Itenas, Erasmus+ and DIKTI
for arranging this program. I do hope this program will run for a long time as well and
more people will get to experience the sensation themselves.”

“Saya merasa sangat senang dapat mengikuti program ini, ada banyak pengalaman
dan wawasan baru yang sangat berguna bagi saya, saya dapat bersosialisasi langsung
dengan warga negara asing, mendapatkan teman baru dari berbagai negara, dan
dapat merasakan musim gugur dan musim dingin. Semua hal ini semakin membuka
pandangan saya terhadap dunia internasional.”

“Studying in SZIU really opened my eyes to the world, I met many people from
different nationalities, cultures, and languages. The things I want to see and feel and
maybe the thing that most people also want to see and feel is snow, it might sound
a little tacky but I have to admit this is the thing I’ve been waiting for. Feel the winter
season, the season I usually only see in movies or on the internet. While here, there
are many activities that I do besides studying, there were some campus events such as
researcher’s night, international ceremony, international dinner and also some events
held by the Perhimpunan Pelajar Indonesia in Hungary (PPI Hungary) such as picnics
with PPI Hungary members, SZIU Egyetem, Road to PPI 2020. All the experiences,
knowledge, memories I got while in Hungary I could get because of help and support
from Itenas, DIKTI and Erasmus+ who have organized this program. Therefore, I am
very grateful to these institutions and I wish the best for all. Hungary for me, will
be one of the experiences in my life that will not be forgotten. I hope that with this
program, I will become a more useful human being for the nation, homeland and
religion.”

“During study and living here, I was grateful to be able to meet friends from all over
the world. Besides getting acquainted with them, I learned about the differences in
habits and mutual respect. I became more respectful of the other and know how to
