Languages
Language of instruction: English
Was learning English a key decision factor?
No, it wasn't.
How much did you improve your English?
My level before: No problems in any areas (including slang)
My level after: No problems in any areas (including slang)
Language difficulties
Administrative / Institutional
Personal comments
My language skills improved because I had a constant contact with people from different countries and I could practice the language I learned in school with native speakers. It's a little embarrassing when you're not sure of your level, but helpful and fun because you learn not only the best pronunciation but also the slang.

Personal comments
The Uiversity is well organized for accomodation procedures, so you don't have to worry too much about it... I was very lucky because my student house was near the centre, but a lot of student houses are located very far! My advice is to send your application as soon as possible

Expenses
Main source of funding:
An ERASMUS grant
Other sources of funding:
Family
Work opportunities:
I didn't want/need to work
Personal spending habits
Food is cheap in ALDI. I spent more in the other categories, because I pay nothing for my place in Spain, I went out everyday so that's a lot of money, and I travelled a lot as well.
