@@asipofinspo What an absolutely beautiful country I had the privilege to stay in 2015 on holidays. I've been in Prague and also České Budějovice. Can't wait to get there again.

[@TravelingisFREEDOM]

This is such a charming city, I hope I can visit again sometime in the future when all this is over. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much!

[@flohello4920]

indeed. i also did my erasmus there with a background in finance and accounting, no prefferential treatment but getting grades between 18-20 was possible :D i ended up keeping my scholarship

[@hugorodriguez9255]

I'm watching this in the future as you said, looking forward to go on 1st semester 2021/22🥺

[@BrandemSells]

[@kristinaserobyan1002]

Same.Good luck us guys!!!

[@YuanQ]

oh gosh when you mentioned 3 hr long lecture it reminded me of some of my courses back in college and those were so hard to get through!

[@asipofinspo]

Yes!! Thank god, in Prague I only have 90 min lectures!! 😂

[@riogon10]

Thank you so much I’m going to study at Portugal ! Soon

[@GazilionPT]

The Catholic University (Universidade Católica Portuguesa) is not considered a private university. It's a special case, created after a treaty between Portugal and the Holy See (i.e., the Pope). In Portugal, usually public universities are more prestigious than private universities, but Católica is bundled together with the public ones (and very prestigious, specially for some degrees), not with the private ones. For example, there is a council called "Council of Portuguese University Rectors" which, contrary to what the name might imply, does not include all universities of Portugal, only public universities - and Católica.

[@asipofinspo]

I see!! Thanks for clarifying that 😊 I definitely had a great time at Catolica.. The teachers were really welcoming and there for their students

[@jas5375]

thank youuu so much for this!! :))

[@Smtswizzle]

Do you think that it’s possible to progress in English in Portugal ??

[@ameursalhi9867]

Cool I registered in universidade de porto for the next semester for study Géologie but any results I have one month when I send my documents I stay tuned for the admission

[@rashisharma4037]

Hey!! I guess you are the right person to ask this question now since you are from Czech Republic so which Country is better Portugal or Czech Republic for management studies? I am little confused between there two countries to apply for my master's program. I hope you answer, Thanks :)

[@asipofinspo]

Hello, sorry for replying late!! Yes, I’m from Czech Republic :) I think it really depends on your preference. School is probably going to be much easier in Czech Republic (since the classes are designed for specifically for exchange students), in Portugal they may be harder (since they’re an alternative for Portuguese students).. I’d say nightlife is pretty good in both countries (although now during covid there probably isn’t any).. Portugal has lovely beaches, you can go surfing and stuff.. Prague is beautiful but there’s no ocean.. idk honestly, I think during covid Portugal (Porto) might be a better place because of the things you can do even though everything is closed.. Prague would be something to consider if you don’t want to study too much, enjoy nightlife and perhaps travel more (since school would be easier + also it has a convenient geographical location).. That’s my opinion :)

[@hebezelaya9980]

Thanks for this!

[@asipofinspo]

You’re very welcome!! Are you going to study abroad in Porto? 😊

[@MaryOdere]

You're very gorgeous. Actually the very first citizen of Czech Republic I'm seeing .

[@wordsofwisdom2303]

Do they count the years spent in Portugal as a student as part of the 5 years required to apply for citizenship?

[@samuelogah4895]

Thanks for the video. I am finding it very difficult finding Universities that offer MSc taught in english (Agriculture or biotechnology programs). Can you help?

[@sharonreesechud7881]

Sam I’m looking for this also for my daughter. Biology major in USA. Biotechnology or biochemistry. Which schools offer total program in English. It’s confusing. She may want to transfer there in 4 Th year. I think Nova science and technology school in Lisbon may be our best bet

[@kikiriki5362]

What country you suggest to go on Erasmus?

[@zohirkenioua8689]

Many thanks for you about all information

[@sandy-wu7ch]

Have you also heard or been to Coimbra? I really cant choose between an exchange in Prague or Coimbra... or maybe Budapest. What is the advice you would give?

[@asipofinspo]

I have a friend from Coimbra but I’ve personally never been there! However, I heard the student life is very fun there. Prague and Budapest are much bigger cities compared to Coimbra.. I’d say it depends what kind of a city you like.. All of them are beautiful I’d say 😊

[@ebrahimrefat]

Please can you tell me something about universidade de Evora and country of Portugal?
