When you are stuck at home on a Sunday afternoon, De Doelen is the best place to unwind and experience a good free jazz concert. Biking is also fund and the best park so far I've visited in Rotterdam is the one near the Euromast. It is also nice to have a beer or coffee at the cafes and bars near the Cubic Houses.

We used to go to the same place over and over again. It was called Beurs Cafe, but i am not sre i pelled it right. The city was rather disappointing it terms of night life, but the other students were very friendly so it balanced things a bit.

Coming from Leuven, "the" university city with the best social life, the big and cold city of Rotterdam was no comparison. But the university did do a good job in improving that, by assigning a group of buddies. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Cafe de Beurs to live a dancing wednesday. Thursdays Hollywood can be a good place sometimes. Waterfront and Dissy are the alternative places which I really liked. And of course dormitory rooms were the best places to meet for the parties before going out. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
