Housing
Type of housing: I had a room in a shared flat
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: A room exchange
Why?
I think this is a good way of living. I had my own room but shared kitchen and bathroom with other students. They were from diferent parts of the world so I also practiced my knowledge in languages.

I didn't want/need to work
Personal spending habits
As an erasmus student I wanted to travel and to take part of the spanish culture. In Sweden I don't have those costs in the same way. On the other hand, the housing and nightlife was cheaper in Spain.
