Simply Ideal

Studying with CES Maastricht as a part of the European History, Culture & Arts program was the exact study abroad experience I was looking for and the most incredible experience of my life. In the classroom, I spent the semester reading, learning and discussing Dutch literature and art. But CES makes sure to bring students outside of the classroom to see and experience the Netherlands and Europe for ourselves, taking us to tour different cities while visiting art and history museums. While living in Maastricht, I truly felt that I was a part of the city while going grocery shopping, stopping for frites or going out at night. Maastricht's central location also allowed for easy travel, taking me to places I had only ever dreamed over. Overall, it was an amazing four months that I wish I could repeat again and again.
