 My name is Maria Lucía Bermudez, I'm coming from Bogota, Colombia. Colombia is a really great place in South America, just in the middle of Latin America. It's a great place to visit and to explore. I completed my Bachelor in Pontificio Universidad Javiriana in Bogota in Communication and Advertising. I started from 2002 until 2007. I consider myself a full-time traveller. I was always travelling since I was little when I was really into meeting people from all over the world. So, this need about going abroad was always there. Plus, I studied in the Colombian University and I was always thinking about how the education system can change if you go to another place and you can use a language like English as a tool for reaching other people, other cultures and other ways of learning. I'm following the program of Communication and Information Sciences with specialization in business, communication and digital media. I consider this program unique because it's a combination between exact sciences and humanities and this is giving a unique approach to the program. The Colombian University is a great place to be in terms of the different centres and options that it offers you both in the academic and in the student life. I consider that the staff, the academic and the support staff and the administration staff is always there to help you. Even if it's not about a lecturer or an intellectual, I found them really helpful all through my process in the university and I consider that they are more than just doing the basic thing for you. They go further and you can feel free to contact them anytime, anyhow. Social life is a really important aspect for doing this experience of studying at Tilburg University. I consider that to travel abroad is also to get to know the people and that's something that can change your experience as a whole. So I consider Tilburg a great place to be in that way because it's allowing you to meet people from all over the world and share with them also to get to know the Dutch culture beyond Amsterdam and to travel around a country that is small enough to go every weekend to a new place and get to know new people. I invite you to consider Tilburg University and the Netherlands as your first option to study abroad. It's a spectacular place to be and learn beyond the academy. You have access to an international country where you can not only learn about that but also practice English. It's a myth that only England or the United States can practice English. Welcome to the university and I hope that we will meet again.
