I had the best time studying abroad and was on the Communication Design degree at Hochschule RheinMain in Wiesbaden for two semesters. I made friends for life, I became so much more confident as person in my work and in myself. I was able to try out an exciting array of courses that I never even thought of doing, I was able to gain experience working on live projects with real local clients.

I adapted a much more efficient and professional approach to my design process which I then employed throughout my final year at Loughborough. I learnt skills in areas of design that I was really interested in, in much more depth.

Usually had a few classes or technical workshops a day, sometimes that included our German language lessons. If I did not have classes, I would be on campus in the studio working on projects or working at home. In the afternoon we would tend to do a local activity either organised by the international co-ordinators or by our friends. Often in the evening we would cook in small groups and have dinner together before heading out to a bar.
