3rd year graphic design student, EASR Porto
What do you think about the partnership with SUPŠ Bechyně?
I had the privilege to participate in the partnership between SUPŠ Bechyně and EASR Porto. I couldn’t be happier to know that I’ve met such incredible people and had the opportunity of getting to know such a beautiful place as Bechyne.
This experience was really important for me, not just as a student but also as a person. It was so significant that we were able to share our interests and cultures and to teach our Czech mates how it really is to be Portuguese and to live in Portugal.
What are the challenges that you have faced/ are facing?
For me, the biggest challenge was actually the communication. Sometimes there were some difficulties in communicating, because each one has their own rhythm and level of English… But in the end we could all understand each other and most of times we would end a conversation laughing a lot, which is the best part.
What would you wish to the cooperation between schools?
I wish this project the best, because it really deserves it. I also want to thank to everyone that made this project come true. The partnership will continue, this time with different people, which will be able to discover new things and realities as we did. Wishing the best luck to everyone who started and will continue this project!
