Housing
Type of housing: A room exchange
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
I choosed to chare apartment because I could not speak german at all when I arrived. I wanted to have german house-made. Now I can speak so I would like to have more independence.

there are a "Sprachzentrum" (Language centre) at the university. Great subjects ranging from languages to politics or literature. High level required. Difficult exams.
