Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
It would be interesting to see how real life within a familiy takes place, but since I found some real good friends over there and they regularely took me home with them, I already got some impressions of how they live together. Furthermore there is no chance to live on a campus, because it doesn't exist. All of the students stay with their families until they graduate.

It was kind of hard at the beginning, because at school you learn the tipical Spanish, but when you come to Mexico, ou see, that there are differences between their "castellano" and the Spanish.
