CULTURAL TALK WITH TIJMEN
This week’s episode of Humans of SDU features Tijmen who is doing his Master’s in Business, Language and Culture at SDU. He is also a good friend of Anna’s! His first dream was to work in the film industry: listen to this episode and find out how he ended up in Odense in the end.
- How long has Tijmen been vegan?
- How should you hand your business card to a Japanese person?
- What is the source of Tijmen’s motivation?
How did we find Tijmen?
Before we tell you how, allow us a relieved “finally”!
Tijmen is a classmate and a friend of Anna and they have been hanging out ever since they both came to Odense, even before Humans of SDU was born. Tijmen has also been a valuable fan of the project, listening to many episodes, providing his critical ear for feedback as well as never-ending support with the “How is Humans fo SDU going” question.

“That is one of the most interesting areas of interculturality as well – you might experience it without knowing.”
