It was one of my best decisions in my life to apply for an Erasmus scholarship and to choose the University of Łódź. Despite the fact that the teaching programme was beyond my expectations, the city itself is located in the middle of Poland so it’s pretty easy to travel anywhere in the country. What I liked most about my classes back there was the fact that the teaching was based on open discussions and the topics were interesting. The teachers wanted to hear our opinions about certain topics, without telling us that a way of thinking is wrong compared to another. I had the chance to share opinions without the fear of not being right. The social life is great in Łódź, and I have been there during the pandemic. The other students are friendly and it’s easy to establish connections.
