“I went to Durham University in 2019-2020 for a year-exchange and it has been a great adventure.

Durham, although small, is rich in culture and history, and is famous for its grand cathedral.

‘I had always dreamed of living in Paris - it’s the perfect mix of culture and modernity in the heart of Europe.
Exchange was a very holistic exposure in more ways than living in a new city.
This experience taught me how to be a better student - not just academically, but a better student of life.

‘In my penultimate year, I got the chance to go on exchange at the University of Texas at Austin. 

Needless to say – I had the time of my life!
I’m grateful to have this opportunity as a part of my degree, and I would encourage any CUHK student to take advantage of it!’

‘Surrounded by water and mountains, Vancouver has gorgeous sceneries from literally any vantage point in the city. 

I was amazed by how well the natural setting blends into a cosmopolitan city.
As agreed by lots of GLEFers, going on an exchange is one of the best approaches to get out of our comfort zones.
It was no doubt a fruitful and nourishing experience overall!’
