I’ve really enjoyed our trip to the three countries we visited (Italy, Croatia, and Slovenia).
Beautiful cities, breathtaking views, but my favorite city is Florence, Italy. We got to visit their hospital (Santa Maria Nuova Hospital). The staff was very nice and welcoming.
It was a unique experience and I would love to do it again in Japan.

I would like to say thank you for organizing an amazing university trip to Italy, Croatia and Slovenia. I had the most wonderful time and it wouldn’t have been possible without your help and efforts to make this trip possible for us students. I believe these trips are necessary for students and really help us experience new opportunities in the medical field outside of the UAE and what the world has to offer. The hospital tour was also amazing and we got to see various departments such as the ICU, the pharmacy lab, and the Internal Medicine ward. The doctors were very welcoming and even created a PowerPoint presentation for us explaining how they work in Italy. We also got to explore several monuments and learn about European culture. It wouldn’t have been possible without Ms. Burcu. My favorite country was Croatia by far. The scenery was spectacular and the Plitvice Lakes were unforgettable. I hope the university continues to organize these trips for students, and I would really love to explore Japan next. Many others are also hopeful for this to happen.

My fellow friends and I would like to thank you for organizing this lovely trip for us. It was both educational and enjoyable. We learned a lot about the history of Italy, Slovenia, and Croatia through our hospital visit and the breathtaking monuments we explored. We can’t stop talking to our families and friends about how amazing this trip was and how much we learned. We would like to thank the university for organizing such life-changing trips. They really help students relieve some of the pressure of studying and allow us to experience the true meaning of a vacation. We are all looking forward to the next trip to Japan and are excitedly telling our parents that we’d like to continue traveling with the university.
Thank you so very much.
