“2020 has really been the strangest but also the most incredible year of my life, it began in september 2019 when I arrived in Ghent, I fell in love with this city and met amazing people. The students at HOGENT welcomed us so kindly. From the moment I arrived, I knew I would not leave Belgium at the end of my Erasmus. So I continued my studies in Belgium (VUB, master of international business). Brussels is very different from Ghent but only 35 minutes away by train so I come back really often. Thanks again, HOGENT, for the support you gave us during this pandemic.
Once Erasmus, always Erasmus.”

“As far as I am concerned, I can tell you that the most awesome and important moments of my life happened in my 2019 exchange in Ghent, I did not expect it, since I knew nothing about the place but I just fell in love with the city, all the beautiful landscapes, the castle downtown, and all the amazing people I met. So I would choose Ghent a million times again.”
