I decided to study Culture, Organization and Management because it is a really unique programme that combines theory with a good amount of research. VU Amsterdam is the perfect place to study abroad: diverse, open-minded and full of knowledge and different ideas to share with people from all over the world. I am now working at Mercado Libre, one of the biggest e-commerce and fintech companies in Latin America. However, I still miss biking to the campus everyday!
