my own housing was good; the location, however was not that good. I lived with three Swedes, which was good for my language skills and integration in the country culture

I had a lot of fun, met new people. Swedish people are very friendly, but I was not easy to find good friends amoung Swedes because the erasmus network is very big, and a lot of exchange students are always together. Well it is up to you, I am improving my swedish everyday and I am trying to find a balance between beeing with erasmus students and with the Swedish students. To finish, I really recommand to go abroad, and Linkoping is a very good choice, I feel like a real student :-) so don t hesitate, just do it, you won t regret it, and if you do I will take the responsablity.

Personal comments
In my first semester, I chose a course about Sweden, its society and language (which was naturally instructed in Swedish) to improve my Swedish and the quality of the course helped me to quickly proceed. I also chose to live with Swedish students which made my Sweden experience and my language learning much more complete. In the beginning it is a bit difficult to get the Swedes to talk Swedish to you, but if you are persistent they will start to appreciate that you are learning their language. Generally, everyone is very helpful in terms of language learning. And if you really cannot understand them, every Swedish person has a more than reasonable knowledge of English and often another foreign language. Communication is hence not a problem at all.

Why?
Because you are in touch with more students. And the university is much closer, you need less time to move specialy when the weather is really bad.
