    Welcome packs preparation

    Dear Buddies and Parťáks!
    Preparations for the Orientation week have already started, and one part of them is preparation of the Welcome packs for foreign students. Several hundreds of students are arriving this semester to study at CTU so each hand is more than welcome for help.

    We are looking forward to seeing you on Monday, September 8th at 6PM at ESN Point (Room R304)!

    Tandem evening

    Let’s meet people from all over the world! 🌍

    At Tandem Evening you can get to know other exchange students 🤝, find someone to practice languages with 💬 or just chat and have a beer 🍺. It’s also the perfect opportunity to visit ISC Hub, a cool student bar right inside the Masaryk Dormitory building.

    ℹ️ The idea of Tandem is to find someone who can teach you their native language and at the same time wants to learn yours. Students from 50+ countries have just arrived at CTU, so now is your best chance to try this out. We even created a Tandem database to help you find the ideal language partner. You can sign up at https://esn.cvut.cz/tandem/.

    📅 Join us on Monday September 15th at 19:00 in ISC Hub (underground floor of Masaryk Dorm) to see how it works in practice. See you there 👋

    Prague trip

    Discover the ancient castle Vysehrad standing above the Moldau river. We will follow the riverbank where you can enjoy the chilling atmosphere during the hot summer days. (maybe we might take a break at the traditional Cafe Savoy on the way to Petrin). We will ascend to the breath-taking Petrin Hill and explore it's scenic views. If we make it to the top at the right time we will enjoy the little Eiffel Tower.

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.
