Fontys student (International Marketing) about stay in Vienna.

I decided to go to Vienna for 6 months and applied for the Erasmus+ additional scholarship. This Erasmus+ additional scholarship (nearly €1500 on top of the regular scholarship of Erasmus+) helps me hugely, since I am financing myself independently solely on my own income and no further support from the government or Guardians, therefore this scholarship has helped me hugely in the move to another city where the living costs are much higher than Germany (where I previously lived). This has helped me to support extra costs such as essential travels, deposits for my apartment and other necessary fixed costs. This helped me live freely without much stress, about not being able to join met ups with friends in cafes or whatever leisure activity it may be. I hope that anyone who needs this or might make their life easier in the change of scenery, don’t overlook this scholarship because it might just make your life much easier to be able then to concentrate on your reason for being on your internship or Minor.
