Final comments

Finally to talk about transportation in Karlskrona I would suggest a student make a bus card for 1 month. It will save lot of your money than buying ticket for every time one travel. There is another facility that BTH gives its student is the free bus service for students between all 3 BTH campuses. Always try to stay near campus so that in winter you do not have communication problem.

Personal comments

In the academic environment, there is no problem at all. But, in some social events sometimes I face difficulties when native people start talking in Swedish. But it was no problem when they understood that I am not a Swedish speaking person and they talked in English in a very friendly way making me easy.
