Would you recommend it?
Super appartement, but no elevator (4th floor), and no balcony… Except that, it it great, next to the center (10mn away from most of the places I wanted to visit) and really cosy

What are some top bars, clubs, or events you recommend?

🎓 Uni life at Vu
Which classes do you recommend… or not?
Marketing classes were really boring and I only choose these courses (because I didn’t found any negotiation related course) Students here work as if they were robots : you tell them to do the conclusion before the intro, they will do it even if it not logical, just because it is the guideline.
Do you have some tips?
Yes campus cool, registration not difficult. But I really dislike the way students work here.

Best trips to do?
I don’t have the time to travel, I found a job to make money because life is really expensive in Amsterdam. I am glad my parents helped me the first month and that I received the Erasmus « subvention »

What do you absolutely need to know to live your best life in Amsterdam?
Idk it is a great city, you cannot hate it. Be aware of the bikes, it is a bit dangerous. Except that just go and visit places, you can find a lot of good spots searching on TikTok, insta reels…
