Currently, I have been living in the Netherlands for almost half a year and can confidently say that I feel like at home."

          What has been the most interesting project you have worked on?

          "So far I have only worked on two projects. Although I haven’t finished my second project (Distribution Center Engineer), I like it better. During this project we had to visit a warehouse, think of possible improvements, and create the perfect warehouse in our opinion."

            What has been the highlight of your studies at HZ?

            "The highlight of my studies at HZ has probably been the moments that I have spent with my classmates. I value the time spent with my friends the most because those are the moments that I am going to remember for the rest of my life."

              What would you like to do after graduation?

              "After graduation, I would like to combine my passion which is traveling with my chosen career in logistics."

                What would your advice be to a student applying to HZ?

                "If you are not sure whether to study aboard or to stay at home, choose to come and study here abroad at the HZ. I promise that while you are still young and free studying abroad will change your perspective of life. You will meet new people, see the world and perhaps fall in love with the culture or the country."
