University for Foreigners of Siena, Italy 2025
CATALISANO, GIORGIA (Apr. 2025 - Aug. 2025)
1. Why did you decide to come study in Japan and choose Chukyo University?
Going to Japan was one of my biggest dreams since I was in middle school. I decided to study here in Japan because I wanted to reach that dream and immerse myself in the Japanese culture. I chose Chukyo University because I really liked the environment and the University itself. Also, Nagoya is a good place for those who love to travel around.
2. How do you think you have matured through your studies at Chukyo? Please share your experiences, events, or feelings while studying at Chukyo University.
The pre-departure and the first month in Japan were a bit difficult. I was very afraid of living this experience alone without being able to make friends. After a while, however, I managed to integrate into the university environment. There, I met several people with whom I lived and I am still living many experiences.
3. How do you hope to make use of this experience in the future?
I still don't know how to use this experience, but I know that I will always keep it in my heart. This opportunity gave me so much and taught me many things. I also had the chance to meet great people here.
4. Finally, please give a message to juniors who are considering studying at Chukyo University in the future.
Work hard, but remember to always prioritise yourself. Don't let your thoughts ruin your days and learn little by little to get out of your comfort zone!
