Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
I like the experience of flat-sharing and think it´s very enriching and useful to meet natives and learn the language of the country. It also allows you to have more independence and freedom, because you have to organize yourself and cook, clean, etc, as opposed to living with a family or in a hall of residence.

Personal comments
Overall I´m happy with the accommodation I got. But I wasn´t very lucky with my flatmates, because although they were German, I didn´t get the chance to practice my German that much because we barely had contact to each other.

Personal comments
The language of instruction and the local language at my host university were the same. I had quite a few opportunities to practice my German, although English was dominant, because they were a lot of foreign students whose German wasn´t that good. Overall, though, I think my time abroad was very positive for my language and communication experience, and my fluency in German increased noticeably during the stay.

Personal comments
in my home university courses are taught in english and we don't hear or speak the language of instruction as often as could be most beneficial in the host organisation all courses were in german which was difficult at first but once I got used to it I found it much better than being taught in english and generally speeded up language acquisition
