News from Alexandra Bereczki, SUSI Grantee (Study of the U.S. Institutes for European Student Leaders Program)


“My experience in the United States of America? Honestly, I don’t think I have enough words to describe how amazing it was! All those extraordinary people that I met, all those breathtaking places that I have visited during the five weeks program and everything that I have learned, made this experience impossible to forget! It was intense, I won’t lie about it, and it could also become challenging sometimes, but trust me, it worth all the effort and if you make the best out of it, there is no chance not to be satisfied about the results or not to think ‘Oh my God, I don’t want to leave from this place!’ I’m so thankful to everybody who made this adventure possible for me!”
