Personal comments
It's a great opportunitie to loosen up your tongue in what comes to other languages. I, as the rest of the erasmus students, felt the need to speak the country's language in order to interact with the local people and cultures. It's feels great to be surrounded by a culture that is not our own.

If you go to Universidad de Granada, you must travel to every city of Andalucia, they're precious! Don't worry about accomodation, it's quite easy to find a pleasant room there.
