Personal comments
Donīt stay at students residence, cook your own food, donīt buy several things because at your return it is hard to carry with to many extra items or trying to sell them, prepare a budget and try to add at it. Tyr to make as much friends as you can, sometimes they can invite you or help you in almost everything.

Personal comments
the new hall of residence in leganes wasnt complete when i moved in. it is expensive and too far away from the getafe (socal sciences and law) campus. the travel connections from the new hall are bad to getafe and to madrid (it's in a new estate in leganes and is pretty far from everything in the town too). i moved out after 3 months and was much happier in a privately rented flat.
