Once you speak abit of the language and at least try to speak it people open up to you. It is worth to put some effort into it to learn the basics of the language.

Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
It's better to live in a flat if you want to improve your language skills, because in the dormitory you are just talking English all the time.
