At the beginning it was difficult to communicate with local students but then I force myself through Sport activities and Social life to be in contact with them. Thanks to that I really improve, my language skills.

Most Germans appear indifferent to foreigners, but they are actually not! Many Germans are warm-hearted indeed, and pure! So, go ahead, make friends with them.

If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
If I were to go back and study again, I would choose to live in an Apartment with just a few other Native Speakers. The residence hall that I stayed in was too large and loud noises from down the hall and even from below could be heard; everything from people slamming their doors late at night to late night parties that lasted till the morning hours. It would just be a lot quieter to live in an apartment with fewer people and much better of an educational environment to learn a foreign language in.

Personal comments
They have recently changed residence halls and are no longer using the one I stayed in, THANK HEAVENS! The rooms in the new residence hall are smaller, but they are completely new, which offers an advantage that the old residence hall could not offer. Conditions are better now, generally, than they were a few years ago.
