“…Other lines of research on student’s experiences and students’ problems while studying abroad have shed light on issues related to their motivation to enrol in foreign programs. There are studies on social, cultural and linguistic capital gained through international experience (Bótas & Huisman, 2013 ); on the expectations, experiences and results obtained by Chinese students (Comerio & Walker, 2021 ; Hu et al, 2021 ; Sablina, Soong & Pechurina, 2018 ); on student mobility as an engine of higher education internationalization (Fumasoli, 2021 ); on the relationship between universities’ rankings and students choice (Hazelkorn, 2015 ); on international students’ satisfaction after their educational and non-educational (culture, transportation, accommodation, administrative issues) experience (Nada and Araújo, 2018 ; Huisman et al, 2020 ); on the reasons why some students go abroad when other ones stay at home (Matthies & Karhunen, 2021 ); on students’ opinions on their emotions at the host university (Bañegil-Palacios & Sánchez-Hernández, 2018 ) and, in a wide perspective, on the value of students’ feedback on their educational experience (Williams, 2014 ).…”
