Personal comments
When I arrived to Spain I couldn't speak the basic language, but it was not a problem for me, because I have a good ability in learning new languages (I have allready studyed English, French, German and Latin). I knew what was important to study and I choosed a good course of spanish; I have lived all the time with students that speak spanish, so I improved the language very well. Finally I think that the best way I improved it was to read books.

Personal spending habits
Food is much cheaper in Sapin and I do not cook complicated menus, so much of a saving was done. Since I diddn't have a fixed phone, I tried to use this way of communication the less I could, and not becomong addicted to a mobile phone. For accomodation, since in Belgium I still do live with my family, I do not have any expenses. For nightlife, this is a good way to spending nights after sutdying with new friends, and part of Madrid's charm is it's nightlife! I also did feeel more relaxed in Sapin, which meant I "allowed" myself to have some fun. For travel, I had to use this opportunity to discover little by little the country.

As in any other European coutry, travelling by train is very expensive;just stick to buses! Otherwise Spain is a country with a good price-quality realtionship, so it sin't much of a finacially problematic country.

Enamorada de mi grado

Education, 2018
Overall
Entre en el grado de Educación Social sabiendo lo básico sobre él, no sabía si acabaría encajando conmigo, pero a medida que estudiaba más y más sobre la forma de trabajo de un educador social, me fui enamorando de él. Este grado no solo ha hecho que aprenda conocimientos sobre las ciencias sociales, sino que también ha hecho que me descubra a mí misma y evoluciones hacia una mejor versión de mi.

Overall
La universidad ofrece muchas optativas variadas para especializarte en distintas áreas de las matemáticas. Además, te permite estudiar algunos años en otras universidades para que así conozcas cómo se enseñan las matemáticas en otras partes del mundo. Por último, las prácticas de empresa ofrecidas son escasas o buen parecidas, por lo que para encontrar algo distinto tienes que buscarlo por tu cuenta.

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
In an apartment or house you have the opportunity to live with other young people, yet have your own personal space. You have freedom and choice on your own, whereas in a residence or with a family you may sometimes be limited in some aspects.
