I always
wanted to study abroad or realize an exchange program. So, when I had the
possibility to realize this experience at Karolinska Institute, I immediately
said: “yes!”. I had no other choice in my home university; it was KI or
nothing... But this proposition was perfect for me because KI is one of the
most important research centres and I didn’t know Sweden. Therefore, I was very
impatient to leave.
Four months
before leaving, there were two important things to do. The first one was the
administrative part including the inscription at KI. Thanks to the online
inscription and the Erasmus coordinators of KI and of my home university, this step was
very easy. The most problematic part was the second one which was the accommodation
research. After one month of investigation and thanks to another exchange
student, I finally discovered the UAC website which allows me to apply for a cheap
student room in the centre of Stockholm. It only remained for me to take the
plane and live this amazing adventure.
