STS High School 14–18 anni

Andrea chose to study in the Netherlands

Thu Sep 05 2024

Andrea from Italy was on exchange in the Netherlands.

When I was little, I traveled a lot with my family. When we visited The Netherlands, I felt drawn to this country. I could really see myself living there when I got older, so I decided to go on a high school exchange to The Netherlands.

My host family was amazing! They were so nice and helped me with everything. After only two weeks, I started to feel at home already! I loved spending Christmas with them, celebrating birthdays, going on trips, and having family dinners.

The school was sometimes hard, but the teachers were open to help and didn’t expect me to be at the same level as the other students right away since I had to get used to the Dutch language first.

Making friends at school was easy! People in Brabant are just very welcoming to exchange students.
