KEY:

Nightlife
Travel
Overall
Describe host city: Students interact with the local community without much university involvement
Activities, Nightlife, Travel: Takes place mostly within the university/student environment
Personal comments:
Cafe Curia was my favorite cafe: classical music, home-baked cakes, the best coffee in town- and right beneath my house (owned/operated by my landlord). Cafe Iruna has the best view for people watching, as does the Caballo Blanco. Bars: El Meson de Navararria: good artwork, laid back atmosphere.

Was learning Spanish a key decision factor?
Yes, I wanted to improve my Spanish

My level after: No problems in any areas (including slang)
Personal comments:
All of the classe I attended were regular University classes, not designed for foriegn students. Because of this, the beginning was more difficult, but it challenged me to learn faster and understand more complex language and situations within the University (using the library, registering for classes)
