Attending the “Dealing with Your Feelings” course at VU Amsterdam was truly one of the best experiences of my life.
"Hi, I am Laman Hasanova from Baku, Azerbaijan. It is my last semester of Psychology Bachelor’s degree in Istanbul, Turkey.
Attending the “Dealing with Your Feelings” course at VU Amsterdam was truly one of the best experiences of my life. Under the inspiring guidance of Dr. Đorđe Bašić, I not only learned about emotions on a theoretical level but also discovered new ways to understand and regulate my own feelings. Everyone in the class shared their personal ways of dealing with emotions, which was both inspiring and deeply comforting. It made me realize how universal yet unique our emotional worlds are.
The atmosphere at VU was incredible, from the beautiful campus and well-structured classes to the kind and supportive staff from the international office, who made everything feel so welcoming. The social activities were unforgettable and exploring Amsterdam with new friends from all over the world created memories I’ll always cherish.
One of my favorite moments was when our group walked together through the nearby forest, it felt peaceful, reflective, and perfectly matched the theme of our course. I left the summer school not only with new knowledge but also with meaningful friendships and a stronger sense of self. I am truly grateful to VU University for this unforgettable experience."
