Podcasts and videoblogs

Today our blog is going to be focused on the searching of podcasts and videoblogs made by international students as it is a way of sharing with other people and  other students their experiences at a foreign university in a closer way.


The NUFS Podcast is the international ESL podcast made by English students in Japan, for English students everywhere.On this site you will be able to hear student interviews and opinions on interesting topics and issues. It is also interesting that  the NUFS Podcast is written, performed and produced by students of the Department of British and American Studies at NUFS, Nagoya University of Foreign Studies, in Central Japan anan d that is what makes it more valuable as well as you are totally free to hear any podcast without paying any money.



Another page I've found is the official site of Stockholm University where there is a space dedicated to the  foreign students that are studying there. So in order to get to know a little bit more their exchange students,they decided to make this podcast called "Special audio podcast: meet our exchange students,Spring 2010 " which is free to listen to.




The first videoblog I've found is one made by Jaremie, an american student who started a 11-month foreign exchange journey to Japan. He tells people through the videos he have made how is his life in that country, how is his daily routine and he also tries to show everyone the thing that have surprised him the most about a very different culture and country like Japan.




The second videoblog is about a man called Tyler Swain who is in his first year at Wofford College and through his videoblog "Wofford First Year Experience" he tells his experiences at university based on the videos he upload as well as an explanation of these videos. He explains his own experience about his new life on the campus, and his trips to different places and also the different activities of the university and he tries to show the atmosphere of university life.
