Hello there
Hi my name is Toby, I am from Germany and in September I started to study in France. In this block I want to share some experiences and challenges I faced before and since moving. In my studies Program it is mandatory to do a semester abroad. Coming from a business psychologie program, it was clear clear to me I wanted to go in a program that adds additional value to the field I want to work in fashion. After skimming through the partner schools I found two programs with tight connections to fashion one in Italy and one in France. After a talking with the schools advisors, I came to know I wasnt able to do the program in Italy only leaving one option.
After everybody submitted their choices, I came to know I was going to be the only person of my school doing the program at my partner school, on top I was the only person from my Campus and one of 3 students of my home university going to this particular partner university. #StudentLife101:
So I was Paris bound, into a country whose language I hardly speak, with no friends or family coming along. Just because I felt like it's a natural step on the career path I want to choose.
