On a crisp autumn morning, a group of international students from Sopron embarked on a memorable hike through the picturesque Hungarian countryside. The diverse group, representing various cultures and backgrounds, came together to explore the natural beauty of the region while fostering new friendships.

"It was a fun and chill way to spend a day outdoors," said Adriana Cristina Gazabon Rosado from Colombia. "The group was a mix of different cultures, languages, and backgrounds, which was one of the coolest parts of the day."
The hike also provided an opportunity for the students to connect on a personal level. They shared stories and discussed their lives at the university.
Ali Munavvar from the Maldives echoed these sentiments, expressing gratitude for the experience and the friendships formed. "It wasn't just a hike. It was a memory I will carry with me for years to come," he said.
Read the report of İdil Tanrıöver, a Turkish international student at the University of Sopron:
"We went on hiking on a beautiful Saturday as a group of international students in Sopron. It was a challenging hike where we hiked through hills and beautiful views. As a group, we got to know each other better and connected through conversations we had as we hiked along each other. Towards the end of the hike, we ate our snacks in the forest, relaxed a little, and talked about our lives in the university, and we also played a fun childhood game together as a group and shared laughs. We played our favorite songs as we were going down the hills, and we shared our cultures and songs with each other. We ended the hike with ice cream, everyone's favorite. In the end, it was a great day where we could move our bodies and socialize with new people."
