Lunds Universitet

The majority of night life is organised by the university into 'nation' of which there are thirteen. All these are different in their own way but the most popular were VastGöta on wednesdays and Hallands on fridays. Not to be missed. There are also other bars in Lund such as cafe ariman and hercules which always had a great atmosphere on the weekends. However for the cheapest night out, nations were the best.

The housing was of a good standard, however it was lacking certain facilties such as internet access which came as standard with the other halls of residence available in Lund. In addition the housing I was given was with all other international students which was useful in meeting people and understanding other cultures better. On the other hand more contact with native swedish people would have been beneficial in developing the language for conversational purposes. Overall the housing was spacious and of good quality.

I took part in 3 courses organised by the Folksuniversitet in Lund studying Swedish. These were of use for conversation however as all locals spoke almost fluent English it was not a problem and was to an extent difficult to practice Swedish at times. Together with the fact that my courses were taught in English also. Communication was therefore very easy for me.

I would recommend to come to Lund and make the most of your time here, try to travel around Sweden as Lund is a perfect starting point. Enjoy the lifestyle and try to get to know as many people from all over the world as possible it gives you a real insight into different cultures.
