For girls the places not to be missed are the discos wich have lady's night, and the best places for everybody are the cafes on the beach.

due to strong similarities between spanish and portuguese, it's paradoxically quite difficult to learn portuguese for a spanish person...

NIGHT: Ribera (many places, such as Aniki Bobo, ...); Boavista ( O Laberinto);
CAFE(coffe is great in Porto):Praia da Luz, Cafeina (They are expensive).
Many cities around to be visited if possible: Coimbra, Guimaraes, Ponte de Lima,...
Ribera and all the old part is a very nice place to walk through. Also the Porto wine caves.

Personal comments
it was a very good idea to make a house for all the eramsus of the university because in an experience like this, we need each other. But this one was so special (we had guards, we had time to come back home, we couldn't make any party, sometimes we didn't have water or hot water,...we are not children anymore!).But it was very cheap and in the end, it was a good experience. And I think that they modernize it now.
