My grandfather fled during World War I and later settled in Ecuador. I wanted to study abroad and learn about my ancestors, which led me to Masaryk. The best part of the university is its international community — I feel at home in Brno. - Mirek Houdek, Ecuador
Since my mother is Czech, I joined the Winter School of Human Rights at Masaryk and spent three weeks in Brno. I was surprised by the interactive teaching and great professors. The experience made me consider studying in Brno long-term. - Dominik David Gut, Switzerland
I found a winter school at Masaryk online. The three weeks in Brno exceeded my expectations — I met great people and loved the teaching. I enjoyed my time in the Czech Republic and plan to return with my parents. - Nicole Kadlecik, Australia
