Testimonies from inbound exchange students at USPN
Témoignages d’étudiant.es entrant.es à l’USPN
Coming from Spain Hello everyone! I am Pablo from Spain and I have been doing an Erasmus in 2021 at the USPN. Since it has been a difficult year due to the pandemic I could not have been happier. At the beginning I doubted a lot but I would do it a hundred times again. Paris does not seem to be a common city to study but it has everything you need to study, have fun and to live one of the best periods in your life. The best part for me is that each day you meet new people all over the world and as far as everyone is in the same situation as you, people are open-minded and everyone here want to make new friends. About the university, unfortunately these year all my courses had been online but I had the oportunity to visit the university and all I can say is good things. Everyone in the International Relations Office and Espace Langues are amazing people, they are always aware of us and every small problem you have they help you to manage it. I recommend this experience to everyone; everything I have lived here has been amazing and I will remember this experience and the people I have met forever. Diala, Hasnat, MD et Yeasin, étudiant.es dans le DU Passerelle (géré par l’Espace Langues), n’ont pas hésité un instant à prêter main forte lors des distributions de denrées alimentaires au sein de l’association Linkee ou de la communauté Sant’Egidio. Si Sylvie Barrier, qui pilote ce dispositif, y voit une formidable occasion de mettre à l’épreuve leur maîtrise de la langue française et tisser des liens au sein de notre communauté universitaire (et en dehors), les étudiant.es concerné.es présentent cet engagement comme allant de soi. Cela me rend heureuse de voir les autres heureux. Mettre des sourires sur les visages des gens me donne de la sécurité et de l’espoir. 
Les étudiants en exil du DU Passerelle s’engagent !
MD et Hasnat déclarent tout simplement vouloir poursuivre les actions bénévoles dans lesquelles ils étaient engagés au Bangladesh. Quant à Diala, voici comment elle résume son expérience:
Paris et Barcelone : deux villes en trois temps
