Joining Oceans Network is the best way to keep exchanging your ideas and experience, after your exchange has come to an end. Oceans Network initiatives allowed me to get in touch with like-minded people, expanding my personal network and, of course, also my friendship network.

Making big life changes can be pretty scary. But, you know what is even scarier? Staying in your comfort zone: it's a beautiful place but nothing will ever grow there. So, I made the best choice to step forward and here I am: part of OCEANS Network.

With all its like-minded members, it feels like having family all over the globe. Even today, years after my exchange and building a career, every interaction inspires me - personally and professionally.

I joined OCEANS to connect with others studying abroad. At OCEANS I found like-minded people who have supported me in my travels, my studies and helped me grow as a person. Studying abroad can be hard and OCEANS helps make it easier and I'm keen to support other exchange students as I have been supported.

Every time I take part in an OCEANS event, every time I meet people from OCEANS, every time I talk to my OCEANS friends... I feel like an energetic, stimulating and positive wave has caught me.
