FINAL COMMENTS

You should try to travel around as much as possible. It's a unique experience to travel with people from all different countries. Try to "just pass" your exams and for the rest you should travel, have fun, meet people. Erasmus is ment to get more "life experience", not to advance your studies, you should remember that.
