Personal comments
Kamara is the traditional metting point for the students.
Of course the wonderful cafes on the paralia (sea front). You first have to find a good taverna around the old market (Meletron) or near the Kastro. Then very late in the night you will go to some night clubs near the sea towards the airport.

As food is concerned, the student restaurant is free. You only have to manage for the week-end. Travelling by train (the old one) and by bus is also very cheap because of your student card.

Final comments
Greece is a good choice because as it's not very very organized, you will have to manage by your own most of the time.
Moreover, as far as Europe is concerned, you will meet a completely different mentality in Greece.

Academic
Course recommendations
You can choose courses in English, French or German. Some of the courses will begin very late in the year. It was very difficult to get some information from the administration but the always welcome you with an open smile.
