Universidad de Granada (UGR)

open mindness and lots of patience.

Fly on Malaga. Go also with the bus to the cities around Granada. When you look for apartment go to Granada a few weeks before the start of the academic year (do for example a language course-there are a lot)

The best place for a botellon is always changing now. Nice places for tapas around Plaza de Toros and Calle Elvira. Best bars along Paseo de los Tristes (gay bars there too). Best clubs got to be Planta Baja and Sala Principe. Don't expect hip music, though! Find out about the ferrias and get to all of them - Cadiz, Xerez (la ciudad sin ley), Cordoba, Granada. Don't go home for easter - I took a trip to Cadiz coast and shot to Seville for a few processions and loved it. Gaditanos are the friendliest people in Spain. Trips to Alicante, Valencia, Barca, Madrid are all worth the crazy bus journeys. Guys join a "TUNA" its mad.

Just do it!!!!!!! Save as much money as you can- it goes fast.

A comforter. It gets cold so I'd count on buying something to keep you warm while in bed. Most apartments do not have central heating.
