Personal comments
Night spots: Herrgår'n in Ryd Tuesdays for the International Pub, Fridays and Saturdays; Nationernas Hus everytime especially in the summer a nice place; Platå and Platen's very near to each other good places on days with student prices; student parties (Kravall) and Sittnings in Kårallen and elsewhere are compulsory (not all but most of them); special highlight is the SOF (student orkester festival) every second year in Linköping, the next will be in 2003, I had the luck to expirience it...great; always watch out for special events organized by the different student communities (Draget, Le Mans, ELINpiaden ...)

Housing
Type of housing: room with shared kitchen
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: room with shared kitchen
Why?
I was really lucky with my corridor mates, had never so much fun with people. I love to have conversation and parties whenever I enter the corridor and that was really the case on our corridor in Ryd.

Personal comments
The rooms are sufficient large and the bathroom directly connected to the room, so you don't have to share it with other people...very good. The kitchen has to be shared with the corridor mates and is large enough if not all eight want to cook at the same time. Telephone and a connection to the internet are available, especially the internet connection was a great advantage and this for a really moderate price.

Housing
Type of housing: A room exchange
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
Because I can live with my friends there and it is as expensive as the student accomodation.
