International Food & Karaoke Night Brings Students Together

International Food & Karaoke Night Brings Students Together

On 12 March, Wittenborg’s Amsterdam study location hosted a lively International Food & Karaoke Night, organised by the student-led event committee. The evening brought together students, staff and lecturers for a relaxed night of food and music.

Nikita Pahwa, Assistant Professor of Applied Sciences, also took the stage to sing, saying, “We had a lot of fun!”, adding that the event was a great way to bring people together through food and music.

Participants made dishes from their home countries, including Türkiye, Iran, Russia, India and the Netherlands, creating a diverse spread of international flavours. “What stood out to me the most was learning about the stories behind the food people brought,” said Rohan David, Customer Relations & Support Office Assistant Intern. “Hearing why the dishes were special in their culture made the event even more meaningful.”

The karaoke session was a hit. Leila Keller, Wittenborg student and Head of the Event Committee, mentioned, “I am very happy with the outcome, I think people had fun and the food was gone fast.”

This event is just one of many organised by the Event Committee at Wittenborg’s Amsterdam study location over the past year. Previous events included ice skating, a scenic canal tour by boat, a Halloween party, and much more. The committee continues to bring students and staff together through a range of fun and engaging activities.

The International Food & Karaoke Night gave everyone the chance to bond over food, music and shared experiences. “The more the merrier,” Leila added, expressing her hope that future events will draw in even more people.
