During the workshop, a total of 60 students from 25 countries, who are on an international stay in the academic center, have told their university experience in their countries of origin to the students of the campus of Pamplona.
Among them is Chris van Vliet, from the University of Groningen (Netherlands). "I knew I wanted to come here, but my Spanish is not very good. Fortunately, the University of Navarra does not require students from exchange to speak Spanish," he explains.
Julie Chemutai, from Strathmore University (Kenya), decided to study at the University of Navarra to learn about a new culture and because she wanted to learn Spanish with a good accent. She would advise going to her university to have the opportunity to "meet people from different African cultures" and because it is "the best in central Africa and an opportunity to reinforce her English skills".
