Episode 9: We Took Berlin - Studying and Living Alone

Quintessentially Somali

On the second last episode of this season, we talk all things Berlin.

For the second year of our course, we had the privilege of completing it abroad as part of an exchange programme at our university.

We talk about the application process, interview stage, our expectations before arriving, discussing how we adapted and assimilated into the German culture. We look back in hindsight on how we had to navigate ourselves in a new space, discovering ourselves, making friendships and how we kept up all while studying abroad.

We end on the feedback we would give to our home university, our host university and advice we would give to people wanting to study abroad.

I hope you guys really resonate with what is being discussed, I hope this inspires you to pursue what is in your heart of hearts and be fearless in dreaming.

As always stay blessed and stay safe!!

Love from Yassy Yas and Hani Hans xxx
