HousingType of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
In my opinion apartment/house is the best choice in terms of quality, price and location in Barcelona. Apartments for students are especially in the centre of the city, less expensive and often provide with a single room.

My accomodation experience can be considered pretty good: I lived in the centre of Barcelona with roommates of various parts of the world. I have at my disposal a single room at a good price.

AcademicCourse recommendations
I suggest to choice courses with an international subject: in this way it is possible to interact and work together with international students and therefore to reach a very open minded culture.

Personal comments
Spending a term of four months abroad has been for me absolutley fundamental to perfectly learn a foreign language. Moreover ESADE offered me a course to improve my spanish and it helped me a lot in the social and university communication.Communication in Spanisch has always been for me easy and stimulating in the same time, also thanks to the help constantly received by local teachers and friends.
