Course recommendations
The courses were very well organised, however, there wasn't many opporties to interact with the Swedish students. It was very divided between the international and Swedish students. I believe, to gain a great cultural experience, one must interact with the locals.

Personal comments
The nightclub Niva is one of the best discos in town! Also the Excet is amazing! You can find a lot of nice cafes in the town center. You should not miss "after-work" which takes place every friday afternoon, where you can eat for free in a lot of restaurants.

Housing
Type of housing: Apartments on a student residential area
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: In the same place !!
Why?
We lived only students on that place, mixed the swedish with the foreigners.It´s the best way to meet people and enjoy your student life.The appartments also were pretty big and confortable.

Everybody in Sweden is able to speak English, so I was able to get better. Actually it was not the same for Swedish... it is more difficult.
