HOUSING
Personal assessment
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? because my flatmate were spanish and it is really better to learn a language faster.
Personal comments:
housing at this university was prety good, a lot of choice and comodities everywhere. some student were a litle bit far from the university but nothing dramatic This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
STUDENT LIFE
Personal social experience
Describe host city: Student life dominates the city
Activities, Nightlife: Takes place mostly outside the university/student environment Travel: Takes place both within and outside of the university/student environment Personal comments:
the best bar in madrid is certainly the Honky-Tonk bar, with concerts everyday and rock music for everybody. you have also to visit the museums (Prado and thyssen)where the most famous pinter are exposed. during the week-end you have to do the retiro market, a famous tipical spanish market and finish your day in the Rastro park, where you can take the sun listening Djumbe music and meeting people.

Language difficulties
Language of instruction: Spanish
Was learning Spanish a key decision factor?
Yes, I wanted to improve my Spanish How much did you improve your Spanish?
My level before: Everyday knowledge (shopping, directions, etc.) My level after: No problems in any areas (including slang) Personal comments:
at the bigining it was hard to speak and during the first week i was listening without speaking, but afeter i started to speak ad when you have conversation with teachers, students, or people in the street or bar you improve yourself realy faster. but becarful to don't stay only with students speaking your language.

I didn't explore any work options Personal spending habits:
