Around quarter of the city

and royal gardens.

After near-total destruction in

WWII, Warsaw’s old town was

faithfully restored to its pre-

My faculty and Main library in front of it!

As I am interested in dancing and

during the first semester I had

classes in it , I took part in Zumba

Marathon 2015 Warsaw , this four

hours of dancing was a great

pleasure and fun for me.

Activites

• Besides studies at the University of Warsaw I was trying to be

involved in extra curricular activities. I should mention about

Erasmus Student Network (ESN )at University of Warsaw , the

organization which organized many interesting educational

,cultural, sports and tandem activities for us. Also excursions

in a different European cities.

Polonicum – Centre of

Polish Language and

Culture

Polonicum held a lot of

meetings fo r a festive

occassions. For instance

,Polish Christmas

about history of Polish

Christianity , Christmas

traditions and also we

were taught Polish

introduced with Polish

national cuisine and also

Easter celebration ,where

we were taught special

technique of painting

Easter eggs and had special

Easter dinner.

Friends Forever

During my exchange I met many other Erasmus students from different countries , we spent great time together. The people who I never forget.

Once Erasmus Always Erasmus!

I am so thankful to Erasmus Mundus Programme , it was an

amazing year in my life .

I had an opportunity to spend two semesters learning linguistics at

the University of Warsaw, it broaden my knowledge , enabled me to

get better education and now it’s honorable for me to serve my

country with new knowledge and experience.

All in all expect of my studies I was trying to get introduce Polish

traditions and Culture closely , see historical and important places

in Warsaw and learn the Polish language as hard as I could. I gained

a lot of new friends , got experienced in living on my own far away

from my country, the experience which I got in Poland is valuable

for my studies and general development.

If I have another chance to take part in Erasmus I will readily grasp!

Thanks for your attention!
