believe the NHTV was amongst them. I met
representatives from NHTV at a study fair in
my city. When I told them that I wanted to
study something creative, yet serious enough
for me to be able to find a job afterwards, they
suggested IMEM to me. It seemed perfect, so
I applied. I also went to an orientation day and
had the chance to visit the city before I made
my final decision and I fell in love with it.
Did you like living in Breda – what are some
of your favorite places in the
city?
When I started living in the Netherlands I
took the chance to visit many other cities,
but I knew that Breda was the right place
for me. I just love the vibe of it so much. It’s
cozy and everything is accessible, yet it’s
quite international and there is something
happening all the time because of all the
9
young people who live there.
I also think the location of Breda is really cool
because it’s so close to Belgium, as well as
other nice bigger cities in the Netherlands.
That made it perfect for day trips.
Regarding my favorite places, I always loved
being in the city center, the park, a café called
“Inspire”, a club called “De Boulevard” (I heard
it is now closed unfortunately), the skate park
“Pier 15”, and of course parties in Easy Street
were always fun!
What do you miss the most about living in
Breda?
All the things that I mentioned above. The
relaxed mentality of the people, my friends,
of course, riding a bike and something I never
imagined that I would say is that I miss the
gloomy sweater-weather sometimes.
