I think it would be better if you can share more sports activities with other local students, not much with other Erasmus students. The host University has to do that motivation more frecuently, by the organization of special tournaments of any sport.

I wish I had known...
The Only thing I knew before arriving to Spain was that it was a lot cheaper than Buenos Aires. All the other facts were completely unknown.

Its great, specially because you don t have to study a lot more than your home University, and that gives you the chance to enjoy the Erasmus exciting life.

The Country where I live is one of the most expensive in the world. And as a Student, my life in Spain was according to that condition, that s the reason why I was able to get a lot of discounts.

Not many. The only surprise I get was when I had to buy my Interrail Ticket to travel through all Europe, it was cheaper than what I thought. The other cost savings were took into account on that moment, they weren t a surprise.

Is highly recommended to visit two Discos called QU and ZAIRA, located in the city centre, the best of whole Cordoba!. And if you can choose a place to live, don t hesitate to rent an Apartment in Ciudad Jardin County, there you have the real University life!!, and the best Pubs ever known.
