My name is Christina and I am 26 years old. I moved to Amsterdam a month ago and I already love it here. Why? Because the atmosphere in the city of Amsterdam is quite unique. My favourite activity here is to visit different cafes and bars around the city. All the people I have met so far are so friendly and I enjoy every one of them.

I moved here to take a minor in International Journalism and I am already learning a lot. The teachers are very skilled and attentive. In my class, you are not just one of 30 people - the teachers actually pays attention to each and every one of us.

The only bad thing about Amsterdam is the rain. There is more rain here than you expect, but as long as you bring a raincoat or an umbrella you are good to go. I believe that everyone will fall in love with this city as soon as they get here. Amsterdam is a small but very cosy city, which makes it perfect for exchange if you ask me.
