Stockholm School of Economics (SSE)

The main night spots are around Stureplan to go clubbing, however, there are very nice places in Söder where there are less clubs but more bars to have a drink and talk with friends.

The School takes care of the housing of all exchange students, having the possibility to choose between two locations: Saltis, a student house owned by the school that is close to the School, or Lappis, a student housing area close to Stockholm Univeristy but a little further away from SSE. The rooms at Saltis are a little bigger than the ones at Lappis, have some more facilities as well as wireless connection for Internet in the whole house. It is very nice to live in Slatis.

I fully recommend an exchange program in Stokcholm for all it has to offer, from the people to the academic life as well as the parties. If the student does not mind having cold weather and darkness for 4 months of the year, the Stoskholm is the perfect place to be in. The city is wonderful and so are the Swedes (though it can be difficult to get to know them)! When buying a cell phone card, Comvicq should be the company chosen as it gives bonus every time the person receives a call.

Communication has never been a problem for me during my exchange program. I am bilingual in Swedish and Spanish so I have had no problems in understanding Swedish. Even though I speak with an accent from Stockholm since childhood, now that I have been here for almost 9 months, Swedes find it very difficult to notice that I am not the regular Swedish. English is the main language spoken among exchange students as well as the language of instruction, and having spoken it for over a year now every day and in all situations I feel very comfortable speaking the language.
