showed that 27 percent of people who took part had met their current life partner during their stay abroad. Thirty-three percent of Erasmus students hooked up with people of a different nationality than their own, nearly three times the rate of students who had not travelled. Obviously to meet people of a different nationality you have greater chance when leaving your own country. Next, there is probably something to meeting their partner suitable for starting a family during a certain period of their life that may coincide with Erasmus. So, not sure this statement or this part of the study means anything at all.
