Personal social experience
Personal comments
My suggestion would be to follow the crowds of people. You probably end up in the Rak, or at the club in the dorm... but I must be honest, everything is so cheap that as long as you have a couple of friends you can make every night fun anywhere!!!

Overall
I wish I had known...
I wish I had known sooner how much fun I would have because then I would have tried to go to Pecs for the whole year instead of one semester.

Make sure to plan your trips a couple of days in advance because transportation many times dictates when you can or cannot go and how long you have to visit wherever you desire to go.

Personal comments
I believe that, for the most part, I could already speak Hungarian rather well, so I had no problems at all communicating or being communicated to, of course that does not mean I did not learn a lot while I was there, and I find that the atmosphere for learning was very pleasant.
