Personal comments

When I was in Aarhus, I liked to go out on tuesday to the exchange students meeting at Studenterhus. Exchange students usually went out on friday to the social club, and we did a lot of parties at home. There are a lot of cafes in aarhus to take some drinks and they organize activities like quiz.

Housing

Type of housing: A room exchange

Arranged by: Host university

If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House

Why?

Because my room was 8 kms. from the centre of Aarhus, so if I came back, I would prefer live in the centre.

Final comments

I was a great exchage experience. I travelled around the country by train and by car, and I could visit Germany as well. I like danish people, they are helpful and they try to solve problems inmediately. I really think denamar is a fantastic country to life there. I didn't think about visiting Denmark before my Erasmus experience, but I suggest everybody to visit this small but fantastic country.

Personal comments

In Language and communication, I hadn't any problem because danish people speak english fluently, and they don't have problem to interact with you in it. I try to learn danish to buy some things at supermarket, some adresses or days of the week and numbers. But It is not necessary to speak danish to live in Denmark , in fact, there are a lot of foreign people there.
