Rupali Parekh came from Finland to Warsaw five years ago. She has chosen the Faculty of Psychology of UW where people from all around the world are educated. Rupali, a student with a multicultural background, feels very good at the University of Warsaw.
Rupali Parekh is a 5-year student of Warsaw International Studies in Psychology (WISP) at the University of Warsaw, a programme of study taught in English. Before her arrival, she did not know a lot about Warsaw. She was afraid that Poland could be bland and quiet. – I was astonished when I came here. The country is developing – says Rupali Parekh.
