Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
It was a great experience to live with german people, so I could learn more about the culture and the language. To know people of other nationalities than the german is quite easy at the university or in the pubs, so it is better to live with german people in germany, so you can learn more things.

Personal comments
It was a great experience to know another university system, because in spain, the teaching way is sometimes quite different, so at the first days, I had to ask lot of things to get used to my new University system. At the and it was a good experience and I would bring some things of this system to my country, for example the seminaries teaching system.

Academic
Course recommendations
It would be a great Idea to try to get some information of the seminars you could do before going to Leipzig, becouse some of them have a "Nummerus Clausus", so if you don't apply before, you could not get the place.
