"Under all circumstances, I recommend my stay in Hamburg and at the NBS: This semester abroad was really a valuable experience; I am very thankful because my time as an Erasmus student was really wonderful and challenging and will always be a piece of my heart."

Beatrice Danese

"I really could feel how the lecturers or the coordinator were there for me. In fact, I asked them tons of advices or even talked about my future after my bachelor and they were always trying to help me as much as they could. [...] And remember: If you decide to go abroad, it will change your life for good. No jokes here.."

Andrea Santos

"I think in these months I really learned to overcome difficult situations, while always trying to remain positive. Thanks to this experience I feel like I’ve grown a lot, I’m more independent and I have become aware of my capabilities."
