Describe host city: Student life dominates the city
Travel: Takes place mostly outside the university/student environment Activities, Nightlife: Takes place both within and outside of the university/student environment Personal comments:
The student club Karen is the place to go on a wednesday night. Centrum and Huset are other really good clubs.
