I had my first Getfinterantional course on the 29 february. It was interactive course : we talked about the exchange experience and stereotypes it was very fun. I met a lot of people from other countries and it brighten my knowledge about different things:
1. Stereotype are stereotype you should never take is as granted everyone is different (in some case stereotype can actually turn out to be true but as said before its different for each individual).
2. some stereotype i heard about Belgium (i found it really funny to hear them):

– Belgium speak only  flemish actually are a country with three different languages            Dutch, French and German.
– Belgium can’t drive.
– Belgium only drink beer !! actually:Belgian beer is justifiably world
famous for its diversity and quality, there are many other drinks the
Belgians are good at making. Jenever and roomer is a good
example of it!!!
– french fries come from belgium right? yes it does!! you should call
them belgian fries :)!!!

3. i learn that you need to look past stereotype or at least try so that you can eachother better and have a great experience!!

conclusion:
This Get finternational course was a really nice moment who brighten my vision on many different cultures.
