Everybody in Sweden speaks English, which is for me almost a second mother tongue; I would have liked indeed to learn a bit more of Swedish.

Personal comments
Nightlife in Orebro is organized by the students community all week long. When I was there a typical week was structured as follows:
Tuesdays, international parties at Tybblehall organized by the international community, one country per week.
Wednesdays: P2, a disco downtown
Fridays: KArhuset, the disco pub in campus
Saturdays: Strompis, a disco downtown.
Every night preparties in students' rooms, especially the international ones and afterparties either in the two "illegal" pubs in campus or in students' rooms.....can you imagine that!??!??!
