How Germany Helped Me Discover Myself as a Student
The Free Press Journal - Bhopal|December 23, 2024
‘Never give up and always be open for new opportunities’ is one of the quotes that made me who I am today.
Arjun Sojitra

So, moving from India to Germany wasn’t just a transition; it felt like stepping into a new world. Everything was different, from rules and documentation to lifestyle and openness, from teaching styles to the very definition of living. Even the way people have fun here is totally different. Germany brought me closer to myself and helped sharpen my craft and character. Adjusting from food to language, lifestyle to friends circle. Especially as an introvert who had no friends at the start, it was a different kind of journey. Building my name in a completely new city taught me so much about life.

Many in my family suggested that I should be going to the USA or other English-speaking countries, while others advised staying in India. However, my goal was clear—I wanted to do research in nanotechnology and semiconductors. That goal, along with the prospect of free education, made Germany the obvious choice. I had already visualized my life earning a master’s degree from Germany and getting a direct job. I not just wanted to change my life but everyone around me. So one goal with many reasons inspired me to choose Germany.

Adapting to life and education in Germany While the process for admission and getting a visa wasn’t too hard for me. I took help from a consultancy to manage my time better. I came to Germany with a conditional admission letter, and even though the process wasn’t complicated, learning the German language was a tough challenge for someone like me more inclined toward physics than languages. I did a lot of research beforehand about my course, the city, and even small things like how I would reach my destination in this completely new country. That preparation made the process smoother.
