My name is Peder Fredin and I’m from Norway. I’m studying 2. Year in international relations. I found out about Ibsu through internet research, and chose it because i found it to be the best looking option. To be honest I didn’t know much about Georgia when I first came here and didn’t quite know what to expect. Getting to know Georgia has been, and still is a very interesting and pleasant experience which I’m very thankful for. Living and studying in Georgia has given me a connection and understanding of a different part of the world which is both valuable and unique, as not many people from Norway goes here to study. My experience of IBSU and the International Relations department has been pleasant and quite relaxing actually. In my country the universities are usually much bigger and busier. In IBSU I find it easier to navigate courses and contact teachers etc, which has made the university experience far less stressful than what it has been in my home country.
