Overall
I wish I had known...
Not really. Surprises are good and more when you go on Erasmus where most of the people you meet are in the same situation.

Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important
Personal recommendation
For an engineer is not the best University excluding the great deal with the Master Energy Program. This University is more for Nursing or Teaching degrees.

It worths visiting the Scandinavian countries if you never had the chances. If you are in Sweden, I totally recommend go to Lapland where you can see the Northen Lights if you're lucky and experience a different pace of life.

Expenses
Main source of funding:
Family
Other sources of funding:
An ERASMUS grant
Work opportunities:
I didn't explore any work options
Personal spending habits
Phone deals are way cheaper than home. Housing was expensive to be Gävle, wouldn't imagine Stockholm, as the capital of the country. Nightlife was the most expensive thing. Alcohol and cigarettes have higher taxes than in Spain, so takes time to change the way of going out.
