In general man stressed the Munich-exchange students with the horrible Bavarian dialect so that we thought we wouldn´t understand a word they say there, but that is not true. The people in the city Munich don´t speak dialect although it is the capital of Bavaria.

Munchen is in the midle of Europe and you will have a lot of oppertunity to travel. Wiht in Germany "Schönes Wochenende ticket" is a good way to get around at the weekends.

I dance semi-professionally at home, and I wish I had know it is so difficult to become seriously extracurricularly involved in the performing arts.

Germany is a great place to live and study if you are a self-motivated person. It is not in the German psyche to hold your hand, even if you are from another country. One big anvantage is that 80-90% of educated germans speak english well enough to help you out.
