"I got a great opportunity thanks to the Faculty of Tropical AgriSciences (FTA) of Czech University of Life Sciences Prague (CZU) to participate for the period of three months from October to January at International Credit Exchange Mobility program which will be held in Sumy, Ukraine. The partner University of CZU and the place where I will have my stay is Sumy National Agricultural University (SNAU). Sumy National Agrarian University was founded in 1977. It has gone from Sumy branch of Kharkiv Agricultural Institute named after V.V. Dokuchaev. Nowadays there are around 11000 students at the university, as local the same international students. I was very impressed by the university campus. You can find there cozy alleys surrounded by the trees and flowers where people walk. In the middle of the campus is beautiful Orthodox Church.
At my first day I went to visit the university canteen. The canteen has the lowest prices in the town and very delicious food. People are very friendly and the University lectures and staff where treating me very well. I am sure this exchange will bring me a valuable experience and I am looking forward to see and explore more about Sumy and Ukraine."
