Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
I found it cheaper to go out and find an apparment to share with other students than to live in a residencia, or with a family, or in the appartments listed by the University. I was able to live a Spanish students, and preferred the freedom of coooking and cleaning for myself and coming and going as I liked.

As spanish people like to talk, it was no problem at all to talk with them.Apart from the fact that the andalusians speak a pretty hard dialect I am able to understand the dialect after the exchange semester. Of course, I intend to speak the appropriate language.

Why?
It was a great experience to live with other Internationals speaking Spanish. It was good to get to know the city rather than living outside of it on campus.

Personal comments
My housemates became my best friends out there. It was a great place to relax with friends. It was a great start to my Spanish language skills having to phone up 20 Spanish speakers and ask about their accomodation.

Overall
Mi experiencia aquí ha sido sensacional. Estudio en una ciudad con una historia larga y rica que fue capital del reino árabe. Los edificios que podéis encontrar son emblemáticos. De hecho, mi facultad es del siglo xvii. Mis profesores, aunque ha habido de todo, son bastante competentes.
