In this episode, I interviewed José, a senior external relations officer at Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences. We discussed the beauty and compactness of Amsterdam, the experiences of living and studying in the city, and the differences between research universities and universities of applied sciences in the Netherlands. The conversation also covered the cost of living for international students, the student population's demographics, the challenges international students faced, and personal recommendations for favorite spots in Amsterdam.
