Last week I was contacted by the Association for Norwegian Students Abroad (ANSA) regarding the news that the government has agreed to increase the support to Norwegian students who take their undergraduate degrees abroad in non-Western countries.

Unfortunately for me I won't have the chance to benefit from this, as I'm on the last year of my master degree(s) already. However, ANSA wanted some representative students who could talk about the experience of studying abroad, so at least I got the chance to talk about my stay in Korea and Japan to the Norwegian newspaper Dagens Næringsliv (DN).
