IT was a case of picture perfect for a Hampshire student.

Nicki Woodcock’s photo of the iconic Antwerpen Grote Markt in Belgium, impressed judges of the Erasmus+UK ‘My Story’ competition.

The Southampton Solent University student was picked as one of 24 winners of the competition which highlights students travel experiences.

The third-year BA Journalism student travelled to Belgium where she attended Artesis Plantijn Hogeschool as part of a student exchange.

Nicki, said: “I cannot begin to describe the impact of my Erasmus+ year. The chance to find friendship, love, travel and experience things I couldn’t have imagined.

“It was everything and more than I thought it would be - inspiring, life changing, unforgettable and extraordinary. Antwerp city is proudly my second home.”
