    French Café Lingea

    Écoutez bien ! 🇫🇷

    To French students, French learners, and all fans of "art de vivre", listen up! We invite you to the second French Café Lingea, and this time we are heading to a truly iconic location.  

    We will meet on Tuesday, 17 March from 8:00 PM at “Bistro 35”. Located right inside the French Institute (Štěpánská 35), it’s a charming spot where you can soak up a real Parisian vibe in the heart of Prague! ❤️

    Apart from great wine, coffee, and traditional French snacks, you can practice your language skills in the most authentic setting possible. Whether you want to order in French or just enjoy the spirit of the "Institut français", this is the place to be. 🍷🥐

    Speaking French is not mandatory, you will be fine with English too. Seating is limited, so please register on the ESN website if you’re coming. The event is free, but everyone pays for their own food and drinks. They accept credit cards too! 💳

    À bientôt! 👋

Sergio Martín

I have a lot of good memories of the Czech Technical University (CTU), but the first thing I have to emphasize is the Erasmus Student Network (ESN). Due to the nice and friendly atmosphere I could feel since the beginning.

I decided to help them with the organization of some activities like the orientation week, language meetings, sport events or trips. I’ve also been teaching my Spanish language to other students!

It has been an unbelievable experience for me that I recommend to every Erasmus student for sure!

Joining ESN CTU in Prague allowed me many things. At the beginning of the semester, it helped me with getting to know new people from all over the world. I started learning German (with a very nice teacher) in the Masarykova dormitory, I discovered lots of new places in Prague by attending the Café Lingea meetings, where my language skills were tested, and I learned to play voleyball.

I still keep many friends who I have visited/hosted after my Erasmus. That's one of the things I am most proud of – to be able to keep these friendships through time.

My advice for those starting an Erasmus is clear: Join ESN as soon as you get there, you won't regret it.
