 Hi I'm Denise and I'm studying international tourism management and I'm in my third year now and today I'm here with Anouk. Hi guys, she's from the Netherlands and she's also studying international tourism management and why is that? Why did you choose the English program? Well I've always seen my dad working in an international setting and I don't know I just really liked seeing him like with all these different colleagues from like different countries and that's kind of where I got my inspiration from and later I also would really love to work abroad so I thought it's better for my English if I already study in English so I can develop my language skills and also because it looks better on my CV in my opinion. Yeah that's true and how do you how do you experience to be together in a class with so many different nationalities because we're all from somewhere else how do you experience that? I really love it especially because for so many students that come abroad from abroad to here it's like all very new and all they have here is like their friends so it kind of feels like a small family you do so much things together yeah I don't know I just really love it and also everyone approaches things in a different way so I also really noticed with school assignments if we have group work that you work really well together because everyone brings something different into the team and we don't look with the two of us but with two more Germans so it's me and the other Germans how's it for you to live with the three of us? It's great to be honest I don't really notice that much difference between Germans and like Dutch people because well we're kind of the same I think but I really love it to speak English all day because well my German is not that good but it's really nice to like just be together and it's nice that you're as punctual as me so yeah I just I really like it just okay and last but not least but do you have any tips or an advice for international students that come to the Netherlands for the first time? Oh that's a very difficult question I think just take things as a goal because like Dutch people are quite open they really are yeah so they will probably be very interested in why you're here and what you're doing here so yeah don't freak out if people come to you and ask you these kind of questions because we're also very direct yeah yeah just just experience as much as you can go travel in the Netherlands because we have a lot of great things to offer I think that's my advice for now okay thank you for your advice and for answering the questions and I hope that we can help you a bit and we will see you in another letter soon bye bye
