Guided tour of the zoo

As an extension of the lecture, Maarten Reesink will take you on a guided tour of the park in small groups to get to know ARTIS' residents.

Friendship match-up 

Though you can take part in this day on your own, it’s possible to be coupled with a new friend as well. Based on your interest and availability, the Erasmus Student Network (ESN) will pair you with another student. If you choose to take part in this friendshipping match-up, we will share your e-mailadress with ESN. You will receive a form in order to make the best match in the first week of January. On the day, you meet your friendshipping match at the zoo entrance to start your adventure together as you explore the park side by side. 

This event is part of the Well-being Week 2025.
