Personal recommendation:
Its very good. The Erasmus Association works very good. Just remember to arrive there a weak earlier to buy a book that has all the courses and send e-mails to the teachers saying that you're erasmus and asking to go to their courses. FINAL COMMENTS
If you are thinking of going then go! If you don't have much money you can always find a hob anywhere - it easy. You will have lots of fun and the grades usually are better than when we are in our own country ;) This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
