Universidad de Sevilla (US)

do as much traveling as possible, who knows when you´ll be back!

In summation, spending time studying at the Universidad de Sevilla was a very rewarding experience, both academically and socially. As with all things in life, however, you will only get out of it what you are prepared to put in, so go on, immerse yourself in the experience- it's second to none!

Try to get to know as many as people who are already used to the city.

I would recommend to anyone who wants the ultimate study abroad experience to stay for a whole year.

Have fun. The feeling of homesickness does go away. I'd definitely recommend staying a whole year. Make sure you have experiences of eating real Spanish food. That's something I missed out on a bit moving into an apartment. Luckily, one of my friends lived w/someone who was glad to have guests.....a few of us went over there for a full multi-course Spanish lunch quite a few times. When I was traveling over the Winter break, and bought souvenirs, I found it was helpful to mail some stuff directly home to the States from where I was (Athens).

- travel tips: I prefered the train to travel around.. cities you have to visit: GRANADA;CADIZ;CORDOBA;MALAGA;RONDA... and the most beautiful beaches are in the area of CADIZ!! - helpful advice: health: if you don't need first aid or it isn't another emergency case.. you just need something against headache or other "small" health problems.. don't go to the medicine centers.. you have to do a lot of administrative things and to wait for a long time to get an appointment.. just go to the next pharmacy.. they help you like a real doctor!
