Personal comments

All thursdays, fridays and saturdays you can go, if you are an unuversity student to "Social Club", and you'll have a happy our during one hour (till eleven to twelve) to drink beer for free. Then you have to visit "The Boat", a large ship in the harbor. But little bars in town could be the most original places to visit.
