Ratios of costs of living are simply different between the US and Spain. I have also taken advantage of my location to other European treasures this year, and have travelled while I can. Social experiences are also vital to my continued learning of Spanish and to making my stay memorable. For this, I have indulged more in the nightlife than I otherwise would in California.

I wish I had known...
I informed myself of everything that I needed to know and wanted to know before I arrived in Spain. The rest I like to leave as a challenge to myself. You learn more that way.

The Universidad de Complutense was an excellent University overall. The campus is easily accessable by bus and metro and the courses available to you are wonderful. I also greatly appreciated my teachers. They truly went out of their way to make my experience a better one.

Always make have copies of you passport. Take initiative in learning the language of your host country. That means make friends with the locals more than your fellow american students!! And don't forget to smile and have fun!

If you're using public transport (metro and buses) get a monthly pass - you'll save a fortune.
Keep your eye on uni noticeboards for upcoming events and possible language exchanges - a great way to meet local people.

Madrid is the perfect place to enjoy life in every sense. It's the best way to learn the language. The nightlife is incredible.

Personal comments
It was and I think it is a place I loved at the first sight "Los Gabrieles". I remember even the street _ Echegaray- a place where one can listen to the live flamenco shows. Best Cafes? I do not remember the name - but the place ...oh, yes!A place where you can drink the mejor cafe in the city (a native showed me the place), a cafe visited by the "literary" world of Madrid.And, as a recommendation is a cathedral at the outskirts of the city, where Goya - the spanish painter is buried - that little church almost un-noticeable if you do not know the address has something of the "unique" which the well known and too visited places had been stolen by the tourists
