Why did you choose to study abroad?
I chose to study abroad because i wanted a new experience in life.

Why did you choose to study at Masaryk University?
I chose Masaryk simply because they offered Physiotherapy program in english and i heard from other friends who studied in Brno earlier that it was a great city for student life.

How did you prepare your departure?
I did not really prepare much for my departure since i did not know exactly what to expect, i had never visited Czech republic before.

What is it like to study at Masaryk University?
Masaryk is a great school with great education. However, the school is very very tough. Masaryk is not the right choice for a lazy student.
