At first I was disappointed

Yes, I was really upset about the news that I will do Erasmus in Bragança instead of Porto (as I was expecting). But time passed and I realised how lucky I am that I am here. Bragança I can describe as a little students city where youth rule the town. IPB is the only one university here and offers quite good quality studies. I've met many students from other Portugal cities who are coming here for a whole week and going back gome for weekends.

My Erasmus experience here was really good. I wish I could come back here. Despite the fact that city is really small and there is not so much what to do when you have many friends here, you can make each day special. So when I started to look to everything only in positive way everything suddenly become great here.

Portugal is amazing. People, music, dances, food, culture and even Portuguese language at the end of the semester started to become beautiful.

And the last thing. I cried when I left Bragança, it can explain everything!

Gertruda, Lithuania
