Exchange Experience

Have you ever tried the Quiz Night? What, you don’t know what it is? Then it’s the best time to find out!

Dress up in usual clothes, call up some friends and set out to a favourite club? It sounds little bit trite, right? However, dressing up in a fun in a superhero costume with more than 300 people who are as crazy as you… That sounds quite exciting. Meeting the Joker, Mr. Incredible, Superman or Catwoman would definitely attract your attention. However, that’s not even the main attraction! What if you find out that this party is not in a club - but in a tram, which (and this is the best part) goes through the city during normal traffic hours.

Is it better to spend the autumn or spring term in Brno? What a Sophie’s choice, right? I personally consider the semester we’re in right now to be a bit better after all. Yes, there are those amazing markets before Christmas with all that atmosphere, you tend to drink punch and mulled wine pretty much all the time and snow (if you’re lucky that is) changes Brno streets in an unforgettable way.

Michiel Nanninga from Netherlands studies dual- master degree study program and he has been in Brno for two semesters now. What surprised him, who is he living with and what does he have for lunch? Read on!

First, very obvious, but of course necessary question: Why Czech republic, why Brno? Have you been here before?

On Saturday the 7th of March a group of foreign students went to a nearby metropolis. Here is how it came off.

On the last Saturday of February some of the exchange students went on a trip to a historic centre of the town Znojmo. The whole group took a bus in the morning and it did not take long to get there.

As you may have already found out, Brno is famous for its countless cafes. Beer? Of course, you can get it almost everywhere. But finding a good cup of coffee, that can be tricky.

It has become custom that each semester starts with a series of cultural events one of the most popular, with tasting of Moravian wine. Brno as the center of Moravia offers foreign students a unique opportunity to try the best wine in the Czech Republic.

The time that puts the smile on our faces is here once again (unless we let the big presents shopping spree spoil it for us). Yes, we are talking about Christmas. There are only several days left and we have to enjoy them fully. Luckily we are in Brno, so that should be easy.

We are bringing you another report from our regular Wednesday parties. Next in the row was the first party organized in Brno United cooperation. Brno United is an informal union of the three Brno ESN sections, a.k.a. ISC MU, ISC VUT and ISC MENDELU.
